Brad Marchand Rips NHL\'s Decision To Opt Out Of Olympics 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Wed Dec 29, 2021 6:35 am

Boston Bruins winger Brad Marchand became one of the most prominent NHL players to openly criticize the league\'s decision to opt out of the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing because of COVID-19 postponements.

Marchand tweeted a statement on Tuesday that questioned the logic behind the NHL and NHLPA agreeing to add taxi squads to supplement rosters that are missing players thanks to COVID-19 protocols while refusing to do the same during the Olympics.

He needs to educate himself before speaking.

Allow me. NHL is not going because they don't want players stuck there in 5 week quarantines because they tested positive from a flawed test. Ridiculous
Organization can be defined as an organized body of people with a particular purpose. Not random.
