Checking back in on Olympic hockey, where the U.S. women are in the midst of an epic run that can only be described as dominant. Through the entire Olympics, teams have collectively scored just one goal against the Americans. That's right. One goal. That includes America's closest rival on the ice, Canada. America beat Canada 5-0 in the round robin play, a game Canada certainly remembers and will be using as fuel on Thursday.
Two-time Olympic gold medallist Sidney Crosby has been named captain of Canada's men's hockey team at the Milan Cortina Games. The Pittsburgh Penguins superstar captained Canada to a gold medal the last time NHL players participated in the Olympics at the 2014 Games in Sochi, Russia. Four years earlier, he scored the "golden goal" in overtime as Canada defeated the United States 3-2 in the Vancouver 2010 final.
