- Sullivan named US men’s hockey coach for Milan Olympics
- Penguins coach will also coach in Four Nations Face-Off
Mike Sullivan was selected US coach for the 2026 Milan Olympics on Saturday, an expected move that puts the two-time Stanley Cup champion in charge of the country’s bid for its first gold medal since the Miracle On Ice in 1980.
USA Hockey also announced the Pittsburgh Penguins coach will be behind the bench for the Four Nations Face-Off next year, a tournament the NHL will showcase in February 2025 for a taste of international competition leading up to the Olympics. Milan marks the return of NHL players to the Olympics after missing the past two.
