I know, and I have nothing against the NHL players of course, I have no doubt most of them want nothing more than play for gold at the Olympics (apart from winning the Stanly Cup :p )

 

How will the KHL do all this? Will they pause their league during the Olympics? I'm curious, because a while ago I read that if the NHL doesn't pause, KHL wouldn't do that neither..

KHL will have a 2 weeks break during the olympics. So all players will be available to play in PyeongChang. Now it´s certain that KHL will benefit a lot from this tournament.

Will be a real surprise if Russia will not win this ;) In a non-NHL tournament actually Russia might be very likely unbeatable. Just look the Euro Hockey Tour last season, Russian KHL composed team was the official winner already during the 3rd tournament without any surprise.

 

The thing which will interest me the most will be South Korea, now without NHL they have a kinda serious possibility to do something on home ice (well on "home ice" not all players of the team can say that :p)

Why? It's perfect when it's at night:

 

- No other sports outside the Olympics asking for attention

- No non-sportsaddicted people asking for attention

- Only the hardcore fans will be online all night

 

Etc :p

Yes, unfortunately. And at times I found keeping up with Rio hard (even though there's only 5 hours difference) :d

 

Maybe I should just conserve my energy for Tokyo... :p

Yeah, because you'll need 2,5 years to recover from two weeks of upside down sleeping times :p

    • Here's all the confirmed NHLers so far that I could find. Some big names are going. Once the 1st round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs is over, more names should be added    Canada Macklin Celebrini, F (San Jose Sharks) Travis Konecny, F (Philadelphia Flyers) Brandon Montour, D (Seattle Kraken) Ryan O'Reilly, F (Nashville Predators) Zayne Parekh, D (Calgary Flames) (only pre-tournament games are confirmed) Travis Sanheim, D (Philadelphia Flyers) Mackenzie Weegar, D (Calgary Flames)   Bo Horvat and Kent Johnson aren't confirmed but they are both willing to play if asked apparently. Sidney Crosby is considering.    Czechia Filip Hronek, D (Vancouver Canucks) Jakub Lauko, F (Boston Bruins) Karel Vejmelka, G (Utah Hockey Club) Dan Vladar, G (Calgary Flames)   David Pastrnak is possible    Finland Justus Annunen, G (Nashville Predators) Juuso Parssinen, F (New York Rangers) Juuse Saros, G (Nashville Predators) Teuvo Teravainen, F (Chicago Blackhawks) Eeli Tolvanen, F (Seattle Kraken)    Germany Philipp Grubauer, G (Seattle Kraken) Moritz Seider, D (Detroit Red Wings)    Sweden Rasmus Andersson, D (Calgary Flames) Mikael Backlund, F (Calgary Flames) Leo Carlsson, F (Anaheim Ducks) William Eklund, F (San Jose Sharks) Filip Forsberg, F (Nashville Predators) Adam Larsson, D (Seattle Kraken) Isac Lundestroem, F (Anaheim Ducks) Marcus Pettersson, D (Vancouver Canucks) Alexander Wennberg, F (San Jose Sharks)   Mika Zibanejad is also likely.

    • Regarding the swimming they have added the 800m for men and the 1500m for women so cutting numbers would be odd. 
    • That quota I’ve been told by an athlete aiming to qualify who I know online. 
    • Has the quota for Canada been offically confirmed anyway, or is that just a rumour? I can't find anything on google about it (nor the suggested quota for England's athletes someone posted earlier).   12 per gender would make sense (it's roughly what Canada sent to Birmingham). 12 overall seems dumb.
    • Some sports have qualification systems   3x3 basketball (wheelchair) Para-cycling Powerlifting Weightlifting
    • In the past few games, Canada (and other nations) was given an overall athlete quota which they then divided it through the various sports.
    • Whose decision was this, Team Canada's or the Organising committes?
