California's Hilary Knight: US-Canada rivalry, mentoring next generation, Olympic tradition

Описание: US women's hockey legend Hilary Knight sits down for an interview covering her illustrious Olympic career, the intense rivalry with Canada, and her evolving role as a veteran leader. Now in a position where she's "done it all," Hilary is focused on enjoying the journey, taking in every moment, and appreciating the people around her.

The conversation dives deep into the US-Canada rivalry—one of the greatest in all of sports. Hilary describes it as "spicy" and explains how you can feel the intensity whether you're in the stadium or watching through a TV screen. It's best-on-best competition that brings something special out of every player. When pressed for three words to describe Canada, her response? "It gets spicy."

Hilary also reflects on her responsibility as a mentor to younger players, remembering how she hung on every word from legends like Angela Ruggiero and Jenny Potter when she was starting out. She takes that role seriously, making sure to give meaningful advice and help teammates perform at their best. Beyond hockey, she discusses how sport can promote peace and bring the world together—the core of the Olympic Charter. Her favorite Olympic moments? Opening ceremony with Team USA (bringing her to the brink of tears) and geeking out while watching the world's best athletes compete across all sports.
