The men's ice hockey tournament (women's was added in 1998) at the 1988 Winter Olympics in Calgary, Canada, was the 16th Olympic Championship. The Soviet Union – in their last Winter Olympics as a unified nation – won its seventh gold medal, surpassing Canada for most in Olympic ice hockey at that point (Canada won its ninth in 2014). The silver medal was won by Finland, marking its first ever Olympic ice hockey medal. Sweden won the bronze medal. Games were held in the Olympic Saddledome, the Stampede Corral, and Father David Bauer Olympic Arena.

The IIHF did not run a championship in Olympic years at this time. Nations that did not participate in the Calgary Olympics were invited to compete in the final Thayer Tutt Trophy.
