How to watch IIHF Women’s World Championship 2026 for FREE: Ice Hockey live streams

IIHF Women’s World Championship 2026 live streams see Team USA and Team Canada going head-to-head once again for the ultimate bragging rights in women’s international hockey. The US have had the edge in the last couple of big events, so you can be assured that their northern neighbors will be giving it their all in Denmark for this one.

Between them, the North American nations have won every single one of the 24 previous iterations of the women’s World Championship since its inauguration in 1990. In fact, only a single final in all that time wasn’t contested by the US and Canada, when Finland managed to make the 2019 final (beaten, of course, by Team USA). Kept apart in this year’s groups, you’ll inevitably have to wait to see them clash in this year’s climax – a repeat of the gold medal game at the 2026 Winter Olympics, where the US won it in overtime.
