Overview
- Team USA opens against Switzerland on Friday in Zurich at 2:20 p.m. ET on NHL Network and fubo, launching the 16‑nation tournament that runs May 15–31.
- The field features two groups of eight, with round‑robin play feeding single‑elimination quarterfinals; the United States enters as defending champion.
- USA’s roster blends NHL veterans with youth, including Matthew Tkachuk, with Justin Faulk wearing the captain’s C under coach Don Granato.
- Roman Josi captains host Switzerland with Nico Hischier serving as an alternate, anchoring a lineup that includes NHL regulars Nino Niederreiter and Timo Meier.
- Viewing varies by region, as the U.K. lacks linear TV coverage and offers an IIHF.tv tournament pass for about €30, while all U.S. games for Team USA air on NHL Network with streaming on fubo.
