I know its not for another couple of years but it looks like it isnt a sure thing the NHL will participate in the next Winter Olympics as it was not written in the CBA as it was during the last one.

I think that would be a huge mistake however, the last Olympics brought a lot of new fans to the game and the level of play was amazing. (that's why i think the NHL should be contracted to bring a higher level of play to the games) The idea of a hockey world cup is interesting but would not get nearly the coverage that the Olympics gets i think that would be just another mistake in the long line of mistakes made by my favorite man Gary Bettman.
