Canada punches its ticket to the gold medal game with a 3–2 win over Finland at the 2026 Milan Games, and Jeff Marek and Greg Wyshynski waste zero time diving into the flashpoint moments, the officiating chatter, and the fine line between drawing a call and embellishment. They break down Finland sitting on the lead, Jordan Binnington’s biggest stops, Nathan MacKinnon’s late heroics, and what Canada’s third period puck management says about this group heading into the final. Plus, Tyler Yaremchuk joins with thoughts on the lineup, the Sidney Crosby availability storyline, and how a potential USA matchup changes everything, then the show turns to USA vs Slovakia and the pressure of embracing favorite status.

The knockout stage is officially underway at the 2026 Milan Games and the intensity is ramping up. On today’s episode of The Sheet, Jeff Marek and Greg Wyshynski break down a dramatic first round of the men’s bracket that saw Germany eliminate France and Switzerland take care of Italy to punch their tickets forward. The guys dive into what stood out, which teams are trending, and what these results mean for the rest of the tournament as the path to gold narrows.

From there, the focus shifts to the blockbuster gold medal matchup set for Wednesday the 18th — Canada vs. USA. Marek and Wysh debate the strengths, pressure points, and X-factors on both sides, while also reacting to comments from Switzerland’s women’s captain suggesting Canada looked “shaky” in their semifinal — bulletin board material?

Then, the legend himself joins the show. Mike Modano stops by to talk USA Hockey, his Olympic experiences, the evolution of the program, his thoughts on this 2026 squad, and what it takes to win on the biggest stage.

It’s knockout hockey, cross-border rivalry, and one of the greatest American players of all time — all on today’s episode of The Sheet.
