NHL players will compete in the Milan-Cortina Olympics in 2026 and the 2030 Winter Games after missing the previous two editions of the multi-sport event, Sportsnet can confirm.
Really pleased to see this. The lack of a true international best-on-best is holding hockey back in my opinion. And the NHL might not get exactly what they want out of it, but I truly thing it's good for the sport in general.
This is great news!! A world stage for the NHLs best players can only help the NHL. I have non-hockey fan friends that will bring up US losing to Canada with Crosby's goal and even Oshies crazy shootout game
