But why even IOC doesn't have any control over NHL and NBA 

On what basis would IOC have any control over private organisations like that?  

 

What kind of legal aspect would exist that would make them obligated to listen to what the IOC says?

Germany deserved this victory. The whole tournament, they played well. They don't have stars, but they are strong team. I expect a very hard final. we will need very good defense

OAR (Russia) must take the control from the start. Only way to beat this Team GER

Player Insurance. That was the reason why NHL didn't come

Hmmmm it's some how complicated , but IOC could have some pressure as well , well I just don't like how players are restricly bound to their clubs in those 2 leagues basically , for example just from few weeks Los Angles Clippers did a trade with Detroit Pistons including their star Blake Griffin who only knew from the media about this trade u can imagine how frustrated was him
