MONTREAL – The preliminary round of the men’s hockey tournament at the Olympic Winter Games Milano Cortina 2026 wrapped up on Sunday, and the competition now moves to single-elimination playoff games as of Tuesday.
Three teams with a Canadiens player on the roster have clinched first-round byes via their preliminary round seeding. That means No. 1 Canada (Nick Suzuki), No. 3 Slovakia (Juraj Slafkovsky) and No. 4 Finland (Oliver Kapanen) will need to await the results of Tuesday’s qualification playoffs to find out who they’ll face in Wednesday’s quarterfinals.
No. 11 France (Alexandre Texier) meanwhile will take on Germany on Tuesday for a chance to meet the Slovaks on Wednesday.
