The Olympic Games are finally about to start up again, being broadcast around the globe from PyeongChang, South Korea. All eyes will be on the best athletes in the world attempting to bring home medals and glory for their countries.
That’s not exactly the case for men’s ice hockey, as the NHL elected to not send their players to the tournament this year. Instead, rosters of players from European leagues and the minor leagues in North America will compete for the prestige of an Olympic medal.
Included on those rosters are several former Montreal Canadiens players, giving Habs fans at least something to cheer for as the current season circles the drain.
