Two Colorado Avalanche stars are locks to make Team Canada’s 2026 Olympic roster. There’s no doubt we’re talking about Nathan MacKinnon and Cale Makar. The duo are the most dangerous weapons the Canadian side can throw at everyone else in the tourney.
Some may argue that Connor McDavid is better than MacKinnon. But if the 4 Nations Face-Off was an indication, it was MacKinnon who got tournament MVP honors.
But there’s one name that could become a surprising member of Team Canada’s side: Goalie Scott Wedgwood. According to a projection by the Fourth Period published on November 17, the Avalanche goalie landed the third spot on Canada’s depth chart.
