The difference is that they play all these games in hockey for just one medal, where in the other events like Ski Jumping or Nordic combined they keep creating more and more medals.

If we wanted to have women's hockey not be dominated by Canada and the USA, you could have the normal games, then create more hockey events like they do in other sports. Do 2 ten minute periods with only 4 skaters and I bet there would be a lot more upsets along the way.
It would be cool if the Olympics did a 3 vs 3 or 4 vs 4 mini hockey tournament.
