Injured Canada captain Marie-Philip Poulin out against the US at the Olympics
Captain Marie-Philip Poulin, a three-time Olympic gold medalist, is sidelined with a lower-body injury after Canada's 5-1 win over Czechia, missing the crucial USA preliminary game.
- On Feb. 10, 2026, Marie-Philip Poulin has been ruled out of Canada's preliminary-round game against the U.S., announced about five hours before puck drop by the Canadian Olympic Committee.
- Hockey Canada says Poulin was injured Monday after a hit into the boards by Kristyna Kaltounkova during Canada’s 5-1 win over Czechia and listed her as day-to-day.
- Team medics escorted Poulin down the tunnel after she favored her right leg, showed limited weight-bearing, and did not continue in the second or third periods.
- Without Poulin, a three-time Olympic gold medallist, Canada must adjust its lineup against the US, as she is one goal shy of Hayley Wickenheiser's record.
- For now, Poulin's status for the rest of the tournament is unknown as Canada will close preliminary play on Thursday, leaving her recovery uncertain.
