Is it written in the stars for Team USA on Memorial Day Weekend? They're into their first IIHF World Championship final since 1960, where they face Switzerland, who hammered them in the preliminaries and have posted the best defensive and offensive stats in the tournament. However, they've lost all four of their previous cracks at gold.
You can watch USA vs Switzerland live streams from anywhere with a VPN and potentially for free.
USA vs Switzerland live stream, Date, Time, Channels
The USA vs Switzerland live stream takes place on Sunday, May 25.
► Time: 2:20 p.m. ET / 11:20 a.m. PT / 7:20 p.m. BST / 4:20 a.m. AEST (Monday)
• FREE STREAM — ORF (Austria)
• U.S. — NHL Network via Sling TV

• Watch anywhere — try NordVPN 100% risk free
Damien Riat, Jonas Siegenthaler and Dean Kukan were on-target and Leonardo Genoni stopped 23 shots as the Swiss routed the Americans a fortnight ago, to the tune of 3-0. It was a painful first defeat of the tournament for Ryan Warsofsky's men, but they used it to their advantage and have since embarked on a six-game hot streak.
USA have improved immeasurably as the IIHF World Championship has worn on, and they may even have a psychological edge at Avicii Arena despite that emphatic recent reverse. That's because La Nati have something of a complex surrounding this particular prize. They've reached four previous finals and lost them all — most recently 12 months ago.
The pucks drops at 2:20 p.m. ET, after the battle of the co-hosts, Sweden vs Denmark, in the bronze medal game at 9:20 a.m. ET.
Read on for how to watch a USA vs Switzerland live stream in the IIHF World Championship final wherever you are and potentially for FREE.
