The Canadian women’s hockey team debuts on Thursday, followed by figure skating on Friday and the official opening ceremony in the evening. Medal events commence on Saturday, signaling a rapid pace of Olympic action. For those not deeply entrenched in all these sports, navigating the viewing schedule may appear daunting.

To aid in navigating the excitement, The Buzzer, CBC Sports’ daily email newsletter, offers comprehensive coverage until the closing ceremony on Feb. 22.

A key highlight of the newsletter is the daily viewing guide, a favored section among readers. It outlines Canadian athletes with strong medal prospects for the following day, along with their competition schedule. Additionally, readers gain insights into athletes’ backgrounds, enhancing their appreciation of the performances.
