United States to kick off women’s hockey Rivalry Series in Cleveland, Buffalo
COLORADO SPRINGS — The United States will host the first two games of the next Rivalry Series with the Canadian women’s hockey team.
The archrivals will square off Nov. 6 in Cleveland, Ohio, and again Nov. 8 in Buffalo, N.Y.
Canada will host the final two games of the series in December, USA Hockey said in statement.
Both countries will prepare their athletes for the 2026 Olympic Games in Milan-Cortina, Italy, and many of them play in the Professional Women’s Hockey League entering its third season.
Canada won the last three Rivalry Series, including this past season’s five-game set three games to two. The series was shortened to accommodate the PWHL’s schedule.
Canada lost the first three games of best-of-seven before winning four straight to take it in both 2023 and 2024.
