Team USA is among the favorites to bring home gold in men’s hockey at the 2026 Winter Olympics, with NHL stars returning to the Olympic stage at the Milan-Cortina Games.

It is the first time in 12 years that NHL players have been allowed on the world’s biggest stage, and the United States roster is loaded.

Canada is favored to win gold at +115, but is followed closely by Team USA at +175, which could set up an epic rivalry clash in the gold medal game.
