Final: USA 6, Canada 1
Next #RivalrySeries game: December 10 in Edmonton
I know Canada is using these #RivalrySeries games as an evaluation tool more than anything, but it's hard to remind yourself of that when the scoreboard is staring right at you.

#RivalrySeries
Osborne to the bench with 3:35 to go... the U.S. called for icing
#RivalrySeries
The fact that Miller is playing for Canada here tells me that she should be good to go for either #MilanoCortina2026 or #WomensWorlds
#RivalrySeries
Canada to the powerplay with just over 7 to go
#RivalrySeries
Just made it back in time for the final 7:30 of this game.
The U.S. leads 5-1

"PCR" = Pre-Championship Report = the IIHF rankings where prior years are already reduced to what they will be worth in the current year, but before new points are added for the current year itself

You are reading that correctly.
With Russia not currently participating in IIHF play, Switzerland enters these Olympics ranked #1 in the world on the men's side by PCR. (their 8th place from the 2022 Olympics is dropped)
#MilanoCortina2026
Please note: Lower countries (who didn't make it past qualifying or didn't enter in qualifying) already know their final rank for the Olympics. But the PCR is before ANY points are awarded for the tournament.

A reminder that I will likely not be here for Saturday's game as, when the game is set to start, I'll be making my way home from another sporting event.

Shots this period:
Started: USA 6, Canada 0
Since: Canada 4, USA 2
#RivalrySeries
Neither of these rosters have any players who are eligible for the upcoming #U18WomensWorlds (Primerano: last year of eligiblity was last year)
#RivalrySeries
This time, the Canadian PK succeeds
#RivalrySeries
There is no jailbreak here like in the PWHL but could that motivate the Canadian PK?
#RivalrySeries
More penalty trouble for Canada as Fillier now heads off
