In a thrilling battle between rivals Team USA and Canada, the United States women’s ice hockey team fell short in the final matchup of the preliminary stages.
If you’re a fan of international hockey, odds are you are no stranger to this rivalry. In all of the last 18 World Championships, the two titans of international hockey have met in the gold medal game. In fact, in the history of the Olympic event, these two countries are the only teams to ever take home the gold. Canada is the reigning champions after a heart-breaking defeat of the red, white and blue in Sochi back in 2014.
