There was some pretty good physicality in the game and thats a pretty good constant when it comes to US verse Canada. There were also some scrums, the rivalry is pretty intense.
Marketing falls on more than just the league, it falls a lot on media outlets not giving near enough screen time to the Women's games in general. I understand that is a tough ask as well because they don't provide the financial capital but it would not hurt for TSN to advertise the game they are playing on their broadcast a little more.
In reference to the bolded, that is such a backwards way to think. Mens hockey may not have started as a billion dollar business, you are right.; however men always had the better opportunity to pursue things such as athletics as a profession. Have you ever though the Women's game is lagging behind because of institutionalized oppression that has persisted for generations? You don't need to watch the games, but saying "what is their excuse" is just so backwards in so many ways...
Rolls eyes. It isn't institutional oppression, whatever that means. It is the free market that dictates whether men or women get paid in sports, and both men and women generally prefer to watch the best on best in sports. Please keep the social justice creepiness to yourself. You don't get to decide what viewpoints are forward or backward. We have freedom of thought.
