The 2026 Olympic men’s hockey tournament bracket has the United States and Canada positioned to potentially meet in the gold medal game. Canada, the top seed, is set to face No. 8 Czechia, while the No. 2 U.S. team will compete against No. 7 Sweden. Czechia’s Martin Necas has been a standout, but Canada remains a formidable opponent. The U.S. holds an advantage in center depth against Sweden, who are missing key players due to injury.
