SKÖVDE, SWEDEN -- The 2003 4 Nations Cup finished with a classic tilt between women’s hockey two ‘superpowers’ Canada and the USA, with Team USA beating Canada by the score of 2-1 after 22 shots, 11 on each side, were taken in a sudden-death shoot out that decided the outcome of the game. USA’s veteran Cammi Granato was the only player to score in the shoot-out, scoring both of USA’s goals, to give USA the victory.

The two teams faced off twice at this 4 Nations Cup event, with USA winning both games (2-0 and 2-1 in shootout). These games were the first times that Canada and the USA have met since the 2003 Four Nations Cup, which Canada captured.
