France Falls to Czechia in Second Straight Olympics Loss

France battles back from a two-goal deficit to snag a brief lead against Czechia at Santagiulia Arena, but the Czechs flip the script with four unanswered tallies to claim a 6-3 victory in Milano Cortina 2026. Canadiens forward Alexandre Texier logs heavy minutes yet again without denting the scoresheet, as Les Bleus drop to 0-2 in the preliminary round for the first time since qualifying.
