Coyotes' Zbynek Michalek: Opens scoring against Team USA on Thursday

Michalek scored a goal in the Czech Republic's 4-3 victory over Team USA on Thursday.

Analysis:

Zbynek's younger brother Milan hogged most of the glory with a pair of goals in this game, but the veteran defenseman managed to get on the board first 12:44 into the first period. Don't expect him to contribute much offense with the Coyotes this season, though, as you have to go all the way back to 2008-09 to find a season in which the older Michalek scored more than five goals.
