I don't have a problem with putting players who get injured in the Olympics on IR. They are injured after all.

But where we do get screwed is with players who were injured in the NHL before the Olympics and are scheduled to regain full health during the Olympic break. We have to keep these guys out for an extra week or two despite the fact they would be playing if there were NHL games.

I guess the only fair way to do it would be to stop the CPHL for the Olympic break. But not sure if everyone would go for that
