Only four teams remain at the 2025 IIHF Women\u2019s World Championship, with each team trying to advance to Sunday\u2019s gold medal game.
Czechia vs. United States (9 a.m. ET)<\/b>
While Czech netminder Michaela Hesova gave it everything she had, the Americans came away with a 4-0 victory when these two sides met in the opening round. The U.S. is the clear favorite, having barely looked mortal so far in the tournament. However, if Czechia can manage to take that momentum from their quarterfinal win, and with the home fans on their side, they could find a way to at least give the Americans a little pushback.
Team USA has played in every gold medal final at the Women\u2019s Worlds, while Czechia has never made it to a gold medal game in any major international women\u2019s tournament.
Finland vs. Canada (1 p.m.)<\/b>
For the first time since the shocking upset in 2019, Finland and Canada will meet in the semifinals of the Women\u2019s Worlds. Granted, the teams look much different from the eventful tournament in Espoo. I also wouldn\u2019t expect Canada to take Finland lightly, even though the Canadians pulled away to beat the Finns, 5-0, in the group stage last week.
2019 marked the only time Finland, or any country other than the U.S. and Canada, has made it to the gold medal game in the tournament\u2019s history. Canada has advanced to the championship game in 22 of the 23 world championships.
All games on Thursday will be broadcast on NHL Network.<\/b><\/a><\/p>\n
