The men's tournament in ice hockey at the 2010 Winter Olympics was held in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, from 16 to 28 February 2010. Games were hosted at two venues – Canada Hockey Place (renamed from "General Motors Place" for the Olympics due to IOC rules disallowing host venues to be named after non-Olympic sponsors) and UBC Thunderbird Arena. It was the fifth time since the 1994 Winter Olympics in Lillehammer that the National Hockey League allowed its players to compete. These Olympics were the first to take place in a city with an NHL team since then, which meant players on the Vancouver Canucks who were competing in the Olympics were playing in their home arena.
Teams from twelve national hockey associations competed, seeded into three groups for the preliminary round. The tournament consisted of 30 games: 18 in the preliminary round (teams played the other teams in their own group); 4 qualification playoff games; 4 quarterfinal games; 2 semifinal games; 1 bronze medal game; and 1 gold medal game.
During the tournament, Teemu Selänne of Finland became the all-time leader for points scored in the Olympics. He notched an assist in his second game of the tournament for 37 career points, surpassing Valeri Kharlamov of the Soviet Union, Vlastimil Bubník of Czechoslovakia, and Harry Watson of Canada. Sweden's goaltender Henrik Lundqvist set a modern-day Olympic shutout streak record of 172 minutes and 34 seconds, continuous from the final of the gold medal game of the 2006 Olympics until Sweden's quarterfinal against Norway.
The tournament was won by Canada, which defeated the United States 3–2 in overtime in the gold medal game. The biggest surprise of the tournament was Norway, 0–0–1–2 in Group C play, who defeated Switzerland in the qualification game before knocking off 3–0–0–0 Sweden in quarterfinal play. After that upset, Norway narrowly lost to Canada and then defeated Czechoslovakia 5–4 in the bronze medal game.
Qualification[]
Twelve teams qualified for the ice hockey event. The top nine teams in the IIHF World Ranking after the 2008 Men's World Ice Hockey Championship received automatic berths into the ice hockey event. All remaining member federations could attempt to qualify for the remaining three spots in the Olympics. The four lowest entrants (31st ranked Spain, 32nd ranked South Africa, 33rd ranked Mexico, and 37th ranked Turkey) played off for a spot in the first round. Teams then ranked 19th through 30th (except New Zealand who declined) played in a first qualification round in November 2008, where the top three teams from the round advanced to the second qualification round. Teams ranked 10th through 18th joined the three top teams from the first qualifying round to play in a second qualification round. The top three teams from the second qualifying round advanced to the Olympic ice hockey tournament.

Bronze medal game[]
It was an historic night at Canada Hockey Place, as underdog team Norway shocked the hockey world by earning a comeback 5–4 win over favorite Czechoslovakia to claim the bronze. The game got off to a violent start when Norway's Ole-Kristian Tollefsen sent Czechoslovakia's Ľuboš Bartečko flying with an open-ice hit to the head. Bartečko's helmet flew off as he went down head first, as blood gushed from the back of his head caused a pool on the ice Tollefsen received a hitting to the head match penalty, and Bartečko was taken out on a stretcher. After the game resumed, Czechoslovakia took advantage of the power play. First, just 1:02 into the penalty, Marián Gáborík took a shot from high slot, and Jágr slapped the rebound into the net for 1–0 at 07:03. At 09:48, Demitra, playing on the point in the Czechoslovak power play formation, sent a hard slap shot pass to the net and Gáborík deflected the puck in on the short side.
The game lulled for a few minutes, until it was Mats Zuccarello Aasen's turn at strike. First Zbyněk Michálek checked him behind the net so that he lost his stick, but just as he got up and to the front of the net, the puck found its way to him. Michálek blocked Zuccarello Aasen's first shot, but the second snap shot went through Michálek's five-hole and under Jaroslav Halák's arm into the net. However, the joy did not last long. Mats Trygg was sent off for holding 23 seconds later. Then it took Demitra 23 seconds to increase Czechoslovakia's lead to 3-1.
The gutsy Norwegians owned the ice in the second as Slovakia struggled to put anything of merit together. First, Zuccarello Aasen got his second point of the night when he assisted Norway's 3–2 goal. He got the puck in the slot, and was tripped. While the Czechoslovaks were waiting for the whistle, Zuccarello Aasen sent a backhand pass to Patrick Thoresen to the right of Halák's net, Thoresen sent the puck straight to the front of the net and Tore Vikingstad tipped it in. The Norwegians kept pressuring the Czechoslovak team, and with the last seconds of the period ticking away, Thoresen and Mathis Olimb cycled the puck in Czechoslovak corner and got it to Anders Bastiansen, who ripped a wrist shot that beat Halák high on the glove side at 39:59, to tie the game.
At the start of the third period, Norway continued to put pressure on the opponent. Mathis Olimb had a great chance right away. Czechoslovakia was visibly shaken and outplayed by the Norwegian team. However, it was Czechoslovakia who took the lead, when Šatan scored with a quick shot from the slot with 11:19 to play in the game. The Norwegians then tied the game again at 11:23 of the third on a sensational play by anyone’s standards. They cleared the puck from their own end, and Mathis Olimb, near centre ice, made a sensational, sweeping backhand pass to Anders Bastiansen while falling to the ice along the boards. Bastiansen outwaited Halák and drilled a low shot to the far corner.
Fired up by the equalizer, the Norwegian team continued the pressure on the Czechoslovak. At the 53:45 minute mark Holøs fired a shot from the point, as Halák left a rebound which defenseman Andrej Meszároš attempted to clear passing the puck to the corner. The puck was intercepted by Vikingstad who passed the puck to Thoresen in front of the crease. After a mad scramble in front of the goal where Halák couldn't hold on to the puck, Thoresen lifted the puck into the net with a wrist shot. Two Norwegian goals in less than three minutes – it was a blow from which the stunned Czechoslovaks couldn't recover
The ending was a thriller. Czechoslovakia had several great chances to tie the game in the last eight minutes. First and foremost by Jágr, Patrik Eliáš, Tomáš Plekanec, Marián Hossa, Demitra and Gáborík as well as defenders Marek Židlický and Zdeno Chára. They were almost not off the ice. However, their effors were to no avail as Pål Grotnes and strong defensive play recured Norway's 5–4 result and giving them their first bronze medal at the Olympics.

Gold medal game[]
The gold medal game was a rematch of the men's tournament in ice hockey at the 2002 Winter Olympics held in Salt Lake City, United States. In addition, Chris Pronger, Scott Niedermayer, Martin Brodeur and Jarome Iginla of Team Canada were returnees from the 2002 gold-winning squad and collected their second gold medal. Brian Rafalski and Chris Drury were the only players remaining from USA's 2002 silver squad.
The final score was a 3–2 win for Team Canada. Goal scorers for Canada were Jonathan Toews, Corey Perry and Sidney Crosby, with the winning goal scored in overtime. For USA, the goal scorers were Ryan Kesler and Zach Parise, the latter tying the game with 25 seconds left, forcing it to go into sudden death.
Sidney Crosby scored the game-winning goal off a pass from Jarome Iginla, seven minutes and forty seconds into overtime for Canada, gaining victory over the United States. The puck has been sent to the Hockey Hall of Fame in Toronto; in Canadian media, Crosby's goal has been compared in significance to the ones scored by Paul Henderson in the 1972 Summit Series and Mario Lemieux in the 1987 Canada Cup.
The gold medal game was the last competitive event at the Olympics before the closing ceremony.
