PREVIEW: Americans @ Rebels – January 16, 2026
LAST GAME: For a third straight game the Americans battled back after trailing through 40 minutes, but ultimately saw their comeback fall short in a 4-3 shootout loss in Calgary on Wednesday. Gavin Garland and Cash Koch scored in the third to give the Americans a short-lived lead before Calgary tied the game to send it to overtime. It took until the eighth round of the shootout to decide a winner, with Blake Vanek’s goal being the difference maker.
