diamond_ace 3,106 Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 Is Talbot playing on an Olympic roster? I know he's in the KHL now, so he's theoretically eligible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I turned it on for the final 30 seconds. The announcers yelling was pretty comical to me also. They don't strike me as regular announcers. diamond_ace 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get the NHL’s decision from their perspective but from a fan’s perspective it’s really annoying to have the olympic tournaments made up of a bunch of people past their primes / players who no longer wanted to stay in the NHL (or worse, they weren’t wanted).

It was honestly much more the IOC petulantly foot stomping than the NHL backing out. The NHL wanted the IOC to meet htem half way with things like travel and insurance and in response the IOC said "Fuck you, you have to pay for everything now" so the NHL just said no. Honestly cant blame them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
