Apparently NHL is willing to allow players Italian descent to represent Italy in the 2026 Olympics, let's make rosters for other countries

I am not confused. The NHL does not control nationality of its players who can and can not play. The IIHF does.

A dual citizen that hasn't represented another team needs 480 days in the new country, one that has needs 1460 days. Switching twice isn't possible.

If they make Italy competitive from a bunch of dudes that can’t speak a word of Italian, that’s pathetic.

Have you ever seen or heard an Italian-American say at least one word correctly in Italian? I still don't. Gabagol.
