Where to watch USA vs. Finland live stream, TV channel, start time for 2025 World Juniors hockey championship game | Sporting News
Hockey’s World Junior Championship began in 1977, but the United States was a non-factor in the annual tournament for decades, failing to reach the final until 2004.
The international hockey landscape has changed, though. Team USA will take to the ice in Ottawa on Sunday seeking its second straight World Juniors title and seventh overall as it faces Finland in the 2025 final.
The Americans downed Czechia 4-1 in the semifinals Saturday night, though two of those goals came in the final two minutes. U.S. captain Ryan Leonard tallied a goal and an assist to lead Team USA into the finals against Sweden, which downed longtime rival Sweden 4-3 in overtime in the semis.
Team USA beat Finland 3-2 in last year’s semis before routing Sweden in the final. Can the Americans do it again to repeat as champions for the first time?
Here’s everything you need to know about USA vs. Finland, including TV and streaming options for the World Juniors championship game.
