    b/c the reason you don't want the NHL in the Olympics is because you don't want members of your team getting hurt.

    if anything, i wouldn't want them playing in the World Cup of hockey, which is gimmicky like the World Baseball Classic.

    I've also mentioned that I think it would be great to see the underdog College players take on, but also knock off the giants. The USA doesn't have to win a gold medal every 4 years, but when they do it would be great.

    I may have mentioned Ranger players, but my argument against NHL players getting hurt was for all NHL teams. When I mention Rangers, it hits a little bit closer to home, since this is a Ranger board.

    yeah the World Cup of hockey is a joke, I don't mind the NHL players going in that one.

    Well as for some of the other teams, we wouldn't be able to escape it entirely. We'd still have the KHL and some of the other professional leagues to worry about. But when they win it's a huge deal. But you're right, I don't want to see them getting their asses kicked either.

    US finishes their choking of a 2 goal lead with 4 minutes to play by losing the gold medal in OT. What a bunch of choking ponytails.
