I assume the same applies in the Olympics.

Terrible, terrible choice. It will suggest the result is fixed.
In all of the years of people saying that the NHL tells the refs to influence the game for one team over the other and certain teams aren't meant to get to the finals, has there ever been any concrete proof to back this up?

I am honestly curious. Because you would think in the 25 or so years I have had to listen to people bitch about this, somebody somewhere would have slipped up or confessed.
