The Americans’ 5-1 victory over Latvia in the teams’ opening match of group play<\/a> was far closer than the score suggests \u2014 at least initially. Next up in Group C for Team USA is a Denmark squad that dropped its group-play opener to Germany 3-1. Oscar Fisker M\u00f8lgaard, who made his NHL debut with the Seattle Kraken earlier this season, scored the Danes’ lone goal in that matchup. Without current NHL blueliners, the Danish are in for a tall task defending a loaded American offense.<\/p>\n Advertisement<\/p>\n Jordan Stolz seeks another speedskating gold medal, this time in the 500 meters (11 a.m. ET)<\/strong><\/p>\n Stolz is the future of U.S. speedskating. He’s also the man of the moment<\/a>. The 21-year-old Kewaskum, Wisconsin, native won gold in the first of his four events at this year’s Games, taking first place in the 1,000 meters. Now he’ll be taking part in the 500 meters.

That advantage increased to 6-2 after the fourth end, but the Germans slowly crawled back with four points over the next four ends to cut the U.S. lead to one.<\/p>\n Skip Danny Casper added one in the ninth end and then prevented the Germans from having a chance to tie in the 10th.<\/p>\n The U.S. men continue round-robin play on Sunday with matches against Sweden (3:05 a.m. ET) and Norway (1:05 p.m. ET).<\/p>\n USA’s Aidan Oldenburg, USA’s Benjamin Richardson (L) and USA’s Daniel Casper (C) compete in the curling men’s round robin between Germany and USA during the Milano Cortina 2026 Winter Olympic Games at the Cortina Curling Olympic Stadium in Cortina d’Ampezzo on February 14, 2026.

Kauf was working on a gold-medal run until a tiny bobble midway down the course caused her left ski to slip out for a split second. That ultimately allowed the chasing Anthony to catch up, win on time and on style.<\/p>\n Dual moguls, a new event to the Olympics this this year, matches skiers in a series of head-to-head races where they advance in a single elimination bracket until a winner emerges. Time isn\u2019t the only factor, however, as judges also score turns and tricks just as they would in the regular moguls format.<\/p>\n Things got wild in the semifinals. Facing France\u2019s Perrine Laffont, Kauf advanced on a technicality as both skiers crashed. But Laffont, who got stuck trying to keep her balance after landing her first trick, had to ski the wrong way around a gate, which essentially resulted in a disqualification.<\/p>\n Read more here<\/a>.<\/p>\n LIVIGNO, ITALY – FEBRUARY 14: Silver medalist Jaelin Kauf of Team United States looks on after competing in the Women’s Dual Moguls Big Final on day eight of the Milano Cortina 2026 Winter Olympic games at Livigno Air Park on February 14, 2026 in Livigno, Italy.

The Americans are two victories away from staking their claim as the best women\u2019s hockey team their country has ever produced.<\/p>\n Outshooting Italy 51-6 was the most savage example yet of the team\u2019s tournament-long dominance. The Americans have steamrolled to the semifinals by outscoring their first five opponents 26-1 and outshooting them 225-72.<\/p>\n\n
