Day 3 of the women's hockey preliminary round at the 2022 Olympics saw Team USA and Canada cruise to easy wins.
The Americans defeated the Russian Olympic Committee 5-0 for their fourth straight Olympic win dating back to 2018.
When these two teams met in the prelims four years ago, the U.S. team had no problems in a 5-0 win. This game looked a lot like that matchup, with Russian goalie Maria Sokorina only allowing one goal in the first period despite facing 19 shots.
Team USA took a 2-0 lead in the second period on Hilary Knight's goal before the game turned into a blowout in the third period with three USA goals in less than five minutes.
