The men's hockey tournament at the Milan-Cortina 2026 Winter Olympics concluded with a victory for the USA team. In the final, the Americans faced Canada and won with a score of 2:1 in a dramatic match, declaring their championship.
Idman.Biz reports that Mett Boldi put the USA ahead in the sixth minute of the game after an individual raid. Canada's response came in the 39th minute thanks to Cale Makar. However, the team failed to capitalize on their "five-on-three" advantage in the second period.
In the third period of the match, both teams increased the pressure, but USA goalkeeper Connor Hellebuyck kept his goal intact with incredible saves. Since the main time ended with a score of 1:1, the fate of the game was decided in overtime, which was held in a "three-on-three" format. Jack Hughes scored the "golden goal" and won the Olympic gold for the USA team.
Thus, Canada was content with silver medals, and the bronze award went to the Finnish team.
