Germany and Denmark face off in this Group C men's ice hockey matchup during the 2026 Winter Olympics on Thursday.

Tim Stutzle scored two goals for Team Germany in a 3-1 win against Team Denmark in a Group C game at the Olympic Winter Games Milano Cortina 2026 at RHO Arena in Milan on Thursday. Leon Draisaitl had a goal and an assist, and Philipp Grubauer made 37 saves for Germany (1-0-0-0).

Denmark already achieved what some consider its equivalent of the “Miracle on Ice” at the 2025 IIHF World Championship last May. Now, it heads to the Olympic Winter Games Milano Cortina 2026 hoping to somehow top that.

Seider dominates, logging heavy minutes and contributing an assist as Germany battles Denmark in an exciting Olympic hockey opener.
