Overview

• Canada wrapped a three-day orientation in Calgary that brought together 92 athletes from the men’s, women’s and para programs to align plans and cover Olympic logistics, with NHL invitees not taking the ice.
• Six players are already named to the men’s roster: Connor McDavid, Sidney Crosby, Sam Reinhart, Nathan MacKinnon, Brayden Point and Cale Makar.
• Goaltending remains unsettled, with Jordan Binnington, Adin Hill and Sam Montembeault attending camp and other candidates under evaluation from Oct. 7 to Jan. 1.
• Head coach Jon Cooper, fresh off the Four Nations win, said the staff will fine-tune a strong core, and Hockey Canada plans to announce the full 25-man roster in early January.
• Canada’s women will prepare through the PWHL season and three two-week national training blocks in Calgary, Toronto and Montreal to maintain cohesion before Milan–Cortina.
