Although Macklin Celebrini finished the 2026 Olympics as the tournament\u2019s leading goal scorer with five in six games, the San Jose Sharks superstar\u2019s postgame comments to The Athletic<\/a> made it clear that he still wants to take his share of the blame for Canada\u2019s loss in the gold medal game.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s really disappointing, especially with the group we had,\u201d Celebrini said of the loss. \u201cThe whole time we believed in ourselves. We had lots of chances, I had lots of chances, I missed. You get put in those situations, you have to capitalize on your opportunities, and I didn\u2019t.\u201d<\/p>\n

Celebrini is likely to be a face of Team Canada for the 2030 Olympics in France.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe went through a lot,\u201d Celebrini said. \u201cWe\u2019re all going to remember this time, but unfortunately, it\u2019s going to be more motivational than celebration.\u201d<\/p>\n
