Today at 17:35, ETV+ and ERR's sports portal will broadcast a live stream of the men's ice hockey tournament match from the Milan-Cortina Winter Olympics, where Canada will face the Czech Republic. Commentators Kristjan Kalkun and Rauno Parras will provide insights on this highly anticipated game as Canada aims to showcase its roster of talented players.
The men's ice hockey tournament at this Winter Olympics promises to be highly competitive, as all the world's top players return to the Olympics after a twelve-year absence. The National Hockey League (NHL) is pausing its season during the Olympics, allowing national teams to bring their best players onto the ice. This scenario provides an exciting platform for showcasing top-tier talent and reviving the spirit of international competition in hockey.
Canada, with its storied history as a powerhouse in ice hockey, is sending a star-studded lineup to compete for its tenth gold medal. The roster includes prominent athletes such as double Olympic gold medalist Sidney Crosby, widely regarded as one of the world's best players, Connor McDavid, as well as stars from the Colorado Avalanche, Nathan MacKinnon and Cale Makar. Canada has previously dominated the Olympics, winning the last two tournaments featuring NHL players in Vancouver (2010) and Sochi (2014), and aims to reclaim its prestigious status on the world stage once again.
