Who Won The Gold Medal Match?
The women’s hockey gold medal match kicked off on Thursday, February 19, at the Milano Santaguilia Ice Hockey Arena in Milan, Italy, which seats 16,000 people.
Not only was this game historic for both countries, but it was also historic for the USA’s Hilary Knight, who tied the record for the most games played in women’s Olympic ice hockey history. Knight will also retire for USA hockey after this game.

The game was scoreless after the first period, but Canada opened up the scoring in the first few minutes of the second period. After battling the rest of the period, the USA was unable to score. The United States began the third period still trailing, until 2:04 minutes left in the game when Knight scored the tying goal.
With this goal, she became the all-time leading scorer in USA women’s Olympic history with 15 goals.
With neither side able to score in the remaining two minutes, the game went to overtime, which is a sudden-death 3-on-3 period, so the first team to score will win.
