I actually appreciate the NHL keeping players out of the olympics.
1. Olympic hockey is so lopsided for 2-3 countries. I’d rather see growth in countries outside the US.
2. The Olympics are incredibly corrupt as it is. Look into how China ended up with the 22 games. Same with Sochi.
3. As a fan I love being able to watch my favorite players play rather than get injured for a 1/4 year event where they get a random medal. We all know Canada will win so what’s the point.
4. If I were an owner and signed players to contracts I would fully expect that the 750k-12+M players are getting paid to honor contracts rather than risk injury at a external event.
