Leveraging the company's longtime use of air bladders to improve the cushioning in its shoes, the Nike Therma-FIT Air Milano jacket is made from a soft but durable two-layer composite laminate material that can be inflated or deflated in seconds. When filled with air the jacket is better at trapping body heat for more insulation, and when deflated it provides about as much warmth as a lightweight hoodie, according to Nike.

"It's really a great story, but to get to the Olympics, I think that's still a stretch, Jay," Pierre LeBrun of TSN told Jay Onrait on SportsCentre. "I know you don't really want to hear that, but I don't think he's on Team Canada's radar at the moment."

In this context, Italy has the advantage of a portion of the Alps, a strip of about 1,200 km along the borders with France, Switzerland, Austria, and Slovenia. The Italian Alpine region hosts most of the facilities that have been prepared over the past five years for the Winter Olympics, which will take place from February 6 to 22, 2026, followed by the Paralympic Games from March 6 to 15.

USA vs. Canada isn't only hockey's greatest rivalry, but one of the most competitive and nastiest in all of sports. It's a rivalry that permeates down into the world junior level and bubbles up to the NHL like lava. Please recall the 4 Nations Face-Off last February, where the first meeting between the nations started with three fights in nine seconds and the second meeting ended with a dramatic overtime win for Canada to claim the championship.

2026 will be a massive year in sports, and the race is on for advertisers to reach sports viewers.
