Fresh off winning hockey gold at the 2026 Winter Olympics in Milan, U.S. Olympian hockey stars Hilary Knight, Jack Hughes and Quinn Hughes will join “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon” on Monday for a sit‑down interview, NBC announced.
Before that, Quinn, who is a defenseman for the Wild, will also make an appearance on “Saturday Night Live” on Saturday, according to The Athletic.
Jack — who scored the game-winning goal in Team USA’s dramatic 2-1 overtime win against Canada in the gold-medal game — could be on “SNL” if his Devils team can return to New Jersey in time after playing the Blues in St. Louis on Saturday at 5 p.m.
Despite the late-night appearances, Wild president of hockey operations and general manager Bill Guerin confirmed that Quinn will fly back to Minnesota to play the Blues on Sunday at 5 p.m. ET and the Lightning on Tuesday at 9:30 p.m. ET.
Knight, a forward and captain for the Seattle Torrent of the Professional Women’s Hockey League, helped the U.S. women’s team to a 2-1 overtime win against Canada to win gold in Milan on Feb. 19.
Monday’s installment of “The Tonight Show” will also feature guests Nicole Kidman, Luke Thompson and a cooking demo by Chef Mario Carbone.
