Tre Kronor will meet Latvia in the eighth-finals of the men's hockey tournament at the 2026 Winter Olympics after Denmark's late victory over Latvia secured the matchup. Experts emphasize the need for Sweden to respect Latvia's defensive strength and NHL-caliber goaltending despite being favorites to advance. A win would pit Sweden against the United States in the quarterfinals.
