Olympic champion accuses NHL of raping world hockey

Olympic champion Pashkov: NHL rapes IIHF and the entire world hockey Hockey League (NHL) send players to the Olympic Games in Beijing. This is reported by Russia-Hockey.ru.

The Olympic champion accused the NHL of raping world hockey. “They intend to delay the announcement of the decision to participate in the Olympics to the last. That is, until January 10, everyone will be on their ears, “Pashkov added.

He also noted that the possible absence of NHL players at the Olympics will negatively affect not only the International Ice Hockey Federation (IIHF), but also the chances the Russian national team to win the tournament. This is due to the fact that there are many coaches in the team's coaching staff who are new to the Kontinental Hockey League.

In October, NHL Deputy Commissioner Bill Daly said that the league may prohibit hockey players from participating in the Olympics for security reasons. In early September, the organization officially announced that it would allow players to play in Beijing. The competition will take place in February.
