The United States' demolition of Switzerland on Sunday sets up Tuesday’s group play finale between the U.S. and Canada, which will likely be a preview of the gold medal game.
“It’s one of the best rivalries in sports. I would put it up against anything. Any sport. I’m telling you, for those who don’t have a familiarity with it, it’s absolutely must-watch,” U.S. Coach Joel Johnson said. “Anytime [the] U.S. and Canada play — it could be on a pond, and you put two of those jerseys on and certainly all of sudden the intensity ramps up.”
“Playing against Canada in an exhibition match, if you will, is different than playing against Canada in the Olympics … it’s different pressure, different stages,” Pannek said. “We’re a different team. I’m guessing they are as well.” “That can make a big difference, she said. “The visibility is really important, especially in some of these countries that are trying to develop their programs.”Said Johnson: “I think the scores are a little bit deceiving at the start of the tournament … what I see is the growth and development of women’s hockey that in the global pandemic has stalled just a touch, just as it has on the men’s side.
