Unless we are talking about the Olympics. Hockey played in the Olympics gets a lot of attention. Germany played well there, too. The women's Hockey teams get attention as well. I well remember the American women Olympic Hockey team with Amanda Kessel, Hilary Knight and company winning the Gold Medal against the team from Canada. It was so awesome.


It goes with out saying that the teams from Canada are so hard to beat.

Yeah it has in the past, at least when the US is a medal contender but I don't remember seeing a single match during the previous winter games.

The Match where a referee came from same country as team A

Was in Canada Cup in the middle of the 80'ies.

He came from Canada and he did his job as a professionel between Canada and Sweden.
Reason the American referee who should judge in this game, got fired after a terrible judging in another Canada Cup game.
