Winnipeg Jets winger Nikolaj Ehlers named to Denmark’s preliminary roster for 2026 Olympics

We know how much Jets winger Nikolaj Ehlers loves to represent Denmark on the World stage. When his season ended in Winnipeg he hopped on a plane to get over to Europe to play in the World Championship for the Danes which was taking place in his homeland.

The free agent on July 1st was named as one of the six preliminary members of Team Denmark for the upcoming Olympics that are set to take place in Italy in 2026.

Working hard on a daily basis to provide the latest Winnipeg Jets and Manitoba Moose news for our readers and listeners. I also appear on the Illegal Curve Hockey Show every Saturday on our YouTube channel as well as the Illegal Curve Post-Game Show after every single Jets game. And I occasionally jump in the play-by-play booth at Canada Life to provide colour analysis during Manitoba Moose games.
