The University of Toronto Graduates as the 1927 Allan Cup champions were chosen to represent Canada in ice hockey, and Hewitt oversaw the team's finances at the Olympics. Conn Smythe coached the team during the OHA season, but refused to go to the Olympics due to disagreements on which players were added to the team by the Canadian Olympic Committee. The Graduates went without Smythe, led by team captain Red Porter.

Hewitt was opposed to the format of the hockey tournament at the Olympics, which saw the Canadian team receive a bye into the second round. He wanted the team to have more games, rather than be idle for a week.{{cite news|title=Want Canadians To Play Winners|date=February 8, 1928|newspaper=The Kingston Whig-Standard|location=Kingston, Ontario|page=9|url=https://www.newspapers.com/clip/97188779/hewitt-1928/|access-date=April 17, 2022|archive-date=May 13, 2022|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220513205428/https://www.newspapers.com/clip/97188779/hewitt-1928/|url-status=live}}{{free access}} Despite the wait to play, the Graduates won all three games by scoring 38 goals and conceding none, to win the gold medal.

The top teams from each of the three groups, plus Canada, which had received a bye into the medal round, played a 3 game round-robin to determine the medal winners.

Events:

• 18 km cross-country skiing
• normal hill ski jumping

The cross-country skiing part of this event was combined with the main medal event of cross-country skiing. Those results can be found above in this article in the cross-country skiing section. Some athletes (but not all) entered in both the cross-country skiing and Nordic combined event, their time on the 18 km was used for both events. One would expect that athletes competing at the Nordic combined event, would participate in the cross-country skiing event as well, as they would have the opportunity to win more than one medal. This was not always the case due to the maximum number of athletes that could represent a country per event.

The ski jumping (normal hill) event was held separate from the main medal event of ski jumping, results can be found in the table below.
