Canada unveiled its highly anticipated men's hockey roster for the 2026 Olympics on Wednesday.
The group heading to Milan Cortina is nearly identical to the squad that won the 4 Nations Face-Off in February, with a handful of new additions.
Suzuki, Celebrini, Horvat, and Wilson weren't on the 4 Nations roster. Celebrini, 19, played his way onto the team with 60 points so far in his sophomore season, which trails only McDavid and MacKinnon in the NHL's scoring race.
Blackhawks forward Connor Bedard is perhaps the most notable omission from Canada's roster. He racked up 44 points in 31 games before an upper-body injury sidelined him in mid-December.
Canada's defensive corps is the same unit that won the 4 Nations.
Binnington is the lone returnee after backstopping Canada to its 4 Nations title. He has a longstanding relationship with Canada and St. Louis Blues general manager Doug Armstrong, but has the worst stats of Canada's goaltending trio this season.
