Venues play a pretty big part. No arenas in a lot of potential sites (think back to Rio, Athens, Sydney, Barcelona. It's a pretty big ask for those kind of countries to build a suitable hockey arena (heck, arenas since the tourney requires several).
Plus I think the NHLPA would not like it - cuts into the players own time.
