Brad Marchand speaks out on the NHL & NHLPA skipping the Olympics

While it seemed like a foregone conclusion that the NHL and the NHLPA would back out of the Olympics due to concerns about COVID-19, postponements, and, of course, money, that doesn't mean everyone was happy about the decision.

Count Brad Marchand among that group, as he took to Twitter to share his thoughts on the matter this afternoon:

Marchand's point is a valid one: the league and the PA quickly agreed on taxi squads, which are designed in part to help games go on when teams have guys out due to COVID-19 protocol.
