Final men’s hockey rosters for the 2026 Milan/Cortina Olympics must be submitted Wednesday, the final day of calendar year 2025. Three star United States-born players for the New York Rangers should know their fate Wednesday, even though Team USA won’t unveil its roster until Friday morning.
Team USA general manager Bill Guerin said he’ll call players to inform them of their status Wednesday.
Rangers captain J.T. Miller appears to be a roster lock for the United States, despite his current upper-body injury and declining production this season. His edge. physical play style, excellence in the face-off circle, and ability to shut down the opposition’s best players fit well in Team USA’s bottom-six forward group.
