GAMEDAY: Today will marks the fifth and final contest of the 2019-20 Rivalry Series, a five-game series between the U.S. and Canada. The first event of its kind between the rival nations took place in a three-game format last February.  Fans can catch all the action live in the U.S. by tuning into NHL Network, and following along with @USAHockey using #RivalrySeries on Twitter.

LAST TIME OUT: Team USA enters tonight's finale with a 3-1 lead in the series after defeating Canada, 3-1, in the fourth game of the five-game slate Wednesday (Feb. 5). Dani Cameranesi (Plymouth, Minn.), Hilary Knight (Sun Valley, Idaho) and Hayley Scamurra (Williamsville, N.Y.) provided goals for the U.S., and netminder Katie Burt (Lynn, Mass.) notched her first win as a member of the senior national team. 

RECORD CROWD: It is anticipated a crowd of 11,000-plus will be on hand Saturday (Feb. 8) at Honda Center  in Anaheim, Calif., when the U.S. and Canada meet in the final game of the 2019-20 Rivalry Series.

U.S. Soccer legend Julie Foudy, gymnast Katelyn Ohashi and this year's 21st Duck, Lera Doederlein, will drop tonight's ceremonial puck.
