Yes, the first tiebreaker is goal differential and the second tiebreaker is total goals scored.
Right now, Canada has 20 GF and 3 GA for a difference of +17. The US has 11 GF and 4 GA for a difference of +7.
If the US defeats Germany 10-0, their difference would be +17 and their goal total would be 21, so they'd get the #1 seed.
