During the broadcast of a Rivalry Series game between the Canadian and American women’s national teams on Thursday, the Milano Cortina 2026 jersey design was unveiled. With just three months until the Olympic Winter Games, excitement is building for the hockey tournaments.
Milano Cortina 2026 will mark the return of NHL players to Olympic ice for the first time since Sochi 2014. The intensity seen in the 4 Nations Face-Off suggests this tournament will be memorable. Six Team Canada players have been announced:
Besides Crosby, who played at Vancouver 2010 and Sochi 2014, all will make their Olympic debut. The full roster will be revealed in early January.
Team Canada’s women have dominated Olympic hockey since it was added in Nagano 1998. They have never missed a podium finish and enter Milano Cortina as the reigning champions.
At Beijing 2022, Team Canada’s captain Marie-Philip Poulin became the first player—male or female—to score in four Olympic gold medal games.
The women’s roster will also be announced in January.
Team Canada’s hockey squads gear up for Milano Cortina 2026 with star NHL players returning and a record of consistent Olympic success fueling anticipation.
