In just over a month, millions of Canadians will be gathering to watch ice hockey at the Milano-Cortina Winter Games. Hockey enthusiasts may know Italy is among 12 nations on the men's side that'll be vying for gold, while the host country's women's team is among eight in competition. But what fans may not know is Italy's hockey program has deep and historic ties to Canada, particularly northern Ontario.

The limited-edition line, which dropped on Skims.com at 12 p.m. ET on January 8, is comprised of Team USA-branded clothing, sleepwear, winter essentials (that scarf!), hair accessories, menswear, intimates, and adaptive styles, with prices ranging from $20 to $88 and sizes ranging from XXS-4X. The pieces, which will be gifted to Team USA athletes ahead of the Games, feature the flattering silhouettes and buttery soft fabrics Skims is known for, but with an all-American twist that couldn't be more timely.

One month remains until the Opening Ceremony of the Olympic Winter Games Milano Cortina 2026, with competitions set to run from February 4 to 22, 2026.

Austria's 2022 Olympic slalom silver medallist Katharina Liensberger will miss the Milano Cortina Winter Olympics after suffering a serious knee injury in a training crash. The Austrian Ski Association said Liensberger would have surgery on Friday after medical examinations revealed a fracture of the tibial plateau, a torn meniscus and a medial collateral ligament injury in her right knee. Austrian media said the 28-year-old slalom specialist's season was over after the crash in St Michael a month before the Olympics start in Italy.

We're getting closer and closer to the Milano Cortana 2026 Winter Olympics, and in the run up to the international event the Olympic channel is taking a look at the history of winter sports in the region. Recently they took a look at Italy's first ski lift, the Col Alto chairlift in Corvara, Alta Badia. This lift, created by Italian transport pioneer Erich Kostner, opened in 1947.

Extending across two cities, two regions, and two autonomous provinces, the competitions will be staged over more than 22,000 square kilometres of Northern Italy. Metropolitan venues in Milan are paired with longstanding Alpine centres in Cortina d'Ampezzo, Livigno, Bormio, Anterselva, and Val di Fiemme, creating a framework that bridges urban and mountain contexts. More than 90 per cent of the venues are existing or temporary facilities, reflecting a strategy centred on adaptive reuse, selective upgrades, and long-term integration into regional sport and cultural infrastructures.
