Hayley Wickenheiser (sister of Doug) played on a Finnish men's team (not as goalie, so she actually did something), so she could handle her own. That's just an example, and I don't think the rest of the team was as good as her. They beat the US in the Olympics, but didn't smoke them, so hard to say how they would stand up against a MN highschool team. I have no idea if the same players are coming back for the Olympics, so who knows what the caliber is right now.
I have to say, one of the best moments for me of the 2002 Olympics was when the women hockey players received their gold medals holding their babies. I totally cried.
