Sunday afternoon the US Women’s National Team played Canada at the Xcel Energy Center as part of the Time is Now Tour. There was an official attendance count of 9,098, according to @BorMN, and the crowd was ready to see some of the best hockey in the world. The game was also broadcast on NBCSN and live streamed through the NBC Sports App, so there were a lot of different ways to watch.

The US put Maddie Rooney in goal, while Canada started Shannon Szabados. Canada may have gotten the first shot on the board, but first period belonged to the Americans as they had so many amazing chances on goal and outshot Canada 10-4.
