How about we keep this on a more hockey centric thread. Getting too political now.

Powerplay Quarterback

This is for the best. Torn between wanting China to lose the games and all the athletes losing a chance to go to the Olympics but it would be more than fitting if they had to cancel the games.

So does Canada send another group to play? Who do they scramble together for this considering the situation?

Make the Hockey World Cup a real thing again.
Better that the less-corrupt NHL control the most elite best-on-best tourney as opposed to the more corrupt IOC.

Taking a while to get to 5000

Yep. Players make money off that tournament. I get the appeal of wanting an Olympic medal. But you know what you can buy with the money from the tournament? Someone else's medal on eBay.
Seriously though, make the World Cup mean more to the players and to the hockey community than the Olympics. People want best on best. The NHL has the power to deliver that to everyone's benefit.

How funny would that be? If they won gold it would be less surprising than the Miracle on Ice was.

Armstrong told LeBrun that Sidney Crosby would have been named team captain in a decision that was made some time ago.
“When we got our management staff named, the first decision we made was to reach out to Sidney and let him know that we would love him to be our captain; this was well over a year ago,’’ Armstrong said. “And we told him we would keep him in the process. He had been there, done that. One of the elite players of all time.”
