The CWHL has two games airing on Sportsnet this weekend (also available via Sportsnet NOW, if you subscribe online). Since these two games will be more widely accessible to the average Canadian hockey fan than most regular season games, we thought we’d use the opportunity to do a bit of a CWHL primer focusing on the four teams you’ll see this weekend.

Game 2: Markham Thunder vs Calgary Inferno
When: Sunday, January 6, 2019 1:30 pm EST
