Here's a handy guide to where, how, and when you can watch the 2026 Olympics. NBC, Peacock, and other Universal-owned cable channels are the main destination for all Winter Olympics broadcasts. NBC will air events live in the afternoon and weekend mornings (on U.S. time schedules), with Peacock streaming the Games 24/7.

The Athletic's live coverage this week includes the beginning of the Winter Olympic Games and a week full of Super Bowl festivities.

Competition at the 2026 Winter Olympics begins on Wednesday. The opening ceremony of the Milan-Cortina Games takes place on Friday, but before the Olympic torch is lit, competition in curling and hockey gets underway. The next two weeks will be filled with incredible Olympic moments from the ice to the snow to the slopes.

Jake Sanderson, Tkachuk's teammate with the Senators and the United States, agrees. The defenseman scored one goal in two games at 4 Nations and is eager to measure himself against a deeper talent pool spread across more countries at the Olympics. He seems primed with 44 points (10 goals, 34 assists) in 54 games for the Senators this season.

Each documentary will be dedicated to a different winter discipline: biathlon, cross-country skiing, and mogul skiing
