Описание: Team USA women’s hockey is headed to the gold medal game at the Milano Cortina 2026 Winter Olympics, and players say the moment feels “magical” as the team moves one win away from Olympic gold.

In this extended postgame interview montage, Hilary Knight, Laila Edwards, Kendall Coyne Schofield, Joy Dunne, Aerin Frankel, Hayley Scamurra, Taylor Heise, Hannah Bilka, and Cayla Barnes react after Team USA’s dominant semifinal win over Sweden. The Americans continued a powerful Olympic run, advancing to the final after another shutout performance and maintaining one of the tournament’s strongest defensive stretches.

Players discuss what it means to compete for a gold medal, the balance between treating the next game like any other and embracing the biggest moment of their careers, and why this group’s chemistry and trust have driven their success.
