Have a World Cup of Hockey every 4 years, in the off-season, and have it rotate around the world in countries where the facilities already exist.

They really need to change up how to they handle the Olympics. Four locations, one in North America, one in South America, one in Europe, one in Asia/Africa.
Alternate between the four, for alternate Olympics. So every Fourth Winter and every Fourth Summer Olympics will be in your Zone. Four sets of properly maintained world class facilities that won't fall into ruin or bankrupt a country. We obviously could have issues with countries boycotting Olympics in certain zones but that's their issue.
I'd say you'd want safe, stable, accepting, neutral countries with climates capable of hosting both Olympics without normally being too extreme. Vancouver for North America. Santiago, Chile for South America. Switzerland for Europe and Seoul, South Korea for Asia.
So USA, Russia and China would be annoyed but at least they're all in the same boat and all close enough to a location of the Olympics that travel will be kind to them for one of the events.
