The 2026 Winter Olympics (aka the XXV Winter Olympic Games, aka Milano Cortina 2026) have officially begun, and I’ve yet to hit a best bet! Consistency. Let’s break the seal tomorrow. For my Winter Olympics best bet for Wednesday, February 11th: Men’s Hockey Predictions, we’re off to the Milano Santagiulia Ice Hockey Arena in Milano, Italy. Let’s get this money!
Winter Olympics Best Bet For Wednesday (February 11th): Men’s Hockey Predictions
Finland vs Slovakia
Start Time: 10:40 AM EST
Perhaps the premier event at this year’s Winter Olympics kicks off tomorrow, as the men’s hockey tournament preliminary round begins. For the first time in 12 years, NHL players are participating for their respective countries, making this a true display of the world’s best talent on the ice.
Unfortunately for the Finnish squad, they won’t be displaying their best talent, as star Aleksandar Barkov of the Florida Panthers is injured and out of action. However, this team is so stacked still that they remain a medal threat, regardless.
And Slovakia, with no NHL-level goaltenders on its roster, is not a threat to reach the podium at the end of this tournament. Slovakia will be in tough tomorrow against Finland’s depth, experience, and firepower in this Group B preliminary round game.
This one probably won’t be close, as I expect Finland to overwhelm the Slovaks. Let’s take Finland on the puckline and get ourselves some plus money
Best Bet: Finland -2.5 (+114)
