US hockey star Hilary Knight hits back at Trump’s joke about women’s team during SNL skit

• Trump quipped about inviting US women to White House

• Knight appears on SNL with Hughes brothers

US ice hockey star Hilary Knight aimed a barb at Donald Trump during an appearance on this weekend's Saturday Night Live.

Knight led the US women to gold at last month's Olympics, scoring the Americans' first goal as they beat Canada in overtime. But after the US men's team won gold Trump joked that he would have to invite the women's team to the White House too or risk being impeached. Many of the men's players laughed at Trump's comments, and Knight later called them distasteful and unfortunate." While the US men visited the White House last week, Knight and her teammates said they were too busy to attend and will instead celebrate at an event in July organized by rapper Flavor Flav.
