USA / Canada gold medal game is WED 11:11 EST - DON'T MISS IT - hal - 02-19-2018

In most sports when the league titans meet, everyone always expects an awesome match, but most of the time leave disappointed. That just isn't the case with USA/ Canada womens hockey matches. EVERY ONE of them for the last several years has been an absolute barn burner. USA wins the World Championship every year, but Canada wins Olympic gold.

The mens tournament is a snooze-fest this year since the world best players aren't taking part, but that isn't the case in the Womens game. In fact, most of the worlds best players are on these two teams.

Get over your prejudice against hockey and/or womens sports. IMO, this is the very greatest rivalry in the world of sports today. Every match is a DON'T MISS occasion. I feel like I'm yelling in the wind most of the time with these recommendations, but I'll rope in one person at least and he/she will have a great time.

enjoy!

If it's anything like the Men's final in Vancouver, I'm all over it.

Mind you, I'm from the South, as far as I know "icing" is the stuff you put on a birthday cake, but that game was 100% awesome.

I really want a Hilary Knight USA jersey, but they are hard to find.
