Can Team USA Dethrone Canada? Here’s How to Watch the Women’s Hockey Gold Match

Arguably the most exciting moment of the 2026 Winter Olympics has finally arrived, as the Women’s Hockey Gold Medal game is here. Team USA is once again taking on Canada, hoping to defeat its northern neighbor and avenge the 2022 loss to Canada in Beijing. 

Now the rivalry between these two teams runs deep, all the way back to when women’s hockey became an official event of the Winter Olympics back in 1998. With the exception of the 2006 Games, the gold matchup has always boiled down to Team USA and Team Canada.
