All NHL players that have a contract, cannot participate in next years Olympic games. The league announced this back in April, however the real question was about the minor leagues, such as the American Hockey League (AHL), etc. Deputy Commissioner Bill Daly had this to say about it "A decision has been made that all players under NHL contract will be subject to similar treatment".
What does this mean? Any player who has signed a two-way NHL contract or in any way affiliated with a minor league such as the AHL will not be able to participate. There are mixed feelings among players about the current decisions around the NHL. Players such as Alexander Ovechkin say he still wants to go and will go, no matter what the rules say. Things are heating up in the NHL, what are your thoughts about the decision?
And now the answer to last weeks question...........
HOLDING!! Good job on you for getting it right!
