Markstrom is set to start for Team Sweden against Italy on Wednesday at the 2026 Winter Olympics, per Kyle Cushman of theScore.
Markstrom has a 15-13-1 record, 3.20 GAA and .882 save percentage in 30 outings with New Jersey in 2025-26. It will be Sweden and Italy's opening game of the tournament. Although Italy is the host nation, the Italian team is the clear underdog with a team that includes no players currently in the NHL.
