Will there be NHL players at the Sochi Olympics when the games begin less than a year from now?After the NHL's second lockout in less than 10 years, its fans have been so thrilled to get their games back — TV ratings are up, up, up across the board — that most simply assumed the league would continue its participation in the games. Not so fast. The league met with the International Olympic Committee and International Ice Hockey Federation members some two weeks ago, and the best thing that can be said about the talks is that all parties have described them as "ongoing."
I hope the NHL doesn't go to Sochi, first the games will be played at the earliest 3:00am and the latest 5:00am who the heck gets up that early anyways. Second we already lost games off the schedule this season because of the lockout and now if they go there's more missed games next season.
