Marek & Friedman: It’s Official – No Olympics for the NHL

Jeff and Elliotte discuss the official announcement from the NHL and NHLPA regarding Olympic participation, embracing a best-on-best tournament outside the Olympics and how badly the players want it. Next, they talk about the potential for COVID-19 protocols to be changed, and why it may not be possible because of cross-border travel. Finally, the guys look at the latest surrounding Calgary’s arena deal and if the threat of the Flames pulling out of the deal is just a negotiation tactic.
