Nah, it's because it's boring. The Canadian women team plays against Midget AAA teams (so top end 15-17 year old boys), and are about on par with them:

So the absolute best adult women have their hands full beating teams composed of teenage boys, most of whom will never play in Junior, College, or University let alone pro leagues. I mean shit, I played Midget AA in my first year of Midget, and would have played AAA the next year had I not quit because I didn't want to play hockey 6 nights a week. And keep in mind those games were played with women's rules, so no hitting. Had there been hitting, the teenaged boys would have fucking destroyed the adult women in every single game.
Not trying to minimize things if Canada loses to the US, or anything like that. I personally don't really give a shit about most female sports outside of tennis and beach volleyball, because women suck at sports. It's a physiological fact.
