Canada and the United States have faced each other in the gold medal game of six of seven Olympics, 22 of 23 IIHF Women's World Championships and 21 of 23 4 Nations Cups since the beginning of international play. Only a few of Canada's and the U.S.'s losses have been to teams outside their rivalry.
Canada currently leads the head-to-head with 103 Canadian wins vs 78 American wins. Canada also leads in Gold medals with 31 vs 21 for the Americans.
After an American victory over Canada at the 1998 Nagano Olympics, the Canadian Olympic team won the next four gold medals over the U.S. (the exception being 2006 where Canada defeated Sweden for gold and U.S. defeated Finland for bronze) until 2018, when the U.S. ended a 20-year gold medal drought defeating Canada in a shootout. Canada once again claimed Olympic gold over the U.S. at the 2022 Olympics.
However, at the World Championships, Canada won the first 8 straight gold medals from 1990 to 2004. From 2005 to 2019 the U.S. has dominated winning 9 of the 11 World Championships, defeating Canada eight times (the exception being 2019 where the U.S. won gold defeating Finland, who upset Canada in their semi-final match). Since 2020, Canada has won 3 of the last 4.
At the 4 Nations Cup, Canada and the U.S. have faced each other in every gold medal game (except 2001 when the U.S. withdrew due to the September 11 attacks and 2013 where Canada won gold defeating Finland and the U.S. won bronze defeating Sweden). Between 1996 and 2010, Canada won 12 of 15 and from 2011 to 2018, the U.S. won 6 of the 8. The tournament has not been played since the 2018 edition.
The longest Gold medal streak is tied at 9. The Canadian streak lasting from 1998 to 2002, was broken by U.S.'s Gold at the 2003 4 Nations Cup. The American streak lasting from 2015 to 2019, was broken by Canada's Gold at the 2021 World Championship. The longest win streak, eight games, by the Americans was broken by Canada's win in the gold medal game of the 2002 Olympics.

The Ice Hockey World Championships are an annual international men's ice hockey tournament organized by the International Ice Hockey Federation (IIHF). First officially held at the 1920 Summer Olympics. The IIHF was created in 1908 while the European Championships, the precursor to the World Championships, were first held in 1910. The tournament held at the 1920 Summer Olympics is recognized as the first Ice Hockey World Championship. From 1920 to 1968, the Olympic hockey tournament was also considered the World Championship for that year.
Overtime is a method of determining a winner in an ice hockey game when the score is tied after regulation. The main methods of determining a winner in a tied game are the overtime period, the shootout, or a combination of both. If league rules dictate a finite time in which overtime may be played, with no penalty shoot-out to follow, the game's winning team may or may not be necessarily determined.
The Canada men's national ice hockey team is the ice hockey team representing Canada internationally. The team is overseen by Hockey Canada, a member of the International Ice Hockey Federation.

Canada's national men's team was founded in 1963 by Father David Bauer as a part of the Canadian Amateur Hockey Association, playing out of the University of British Columbia. The nickname "Team Canada" was first used for the 1972 Summit Series and has been frequently used to refer to both the Canadian national men's and women's teams ever since.

Russia has been one of the most successful national ice hockey teams in the world and a member of the so-called "Big Six," the unofficial group of the six strongest men's ice hockey nations, along with Canada, the Czech Republic, Finland, Sweden, and the United States. The European nations of the Big Six participate in the Euro Hockey Tour, which Russia won nine times since 2005. Since September 2021, the head coach is Alexei Zhamnov, who took over from Valeri Bragin.
