IIHF president Luc Tardif also said the organization isn’t happy about the NHL potentially hosting a World Cup of Hockey...
In an address to the media at the World Junior Championship in Halifax on Thursday, IIHF president Luc Tardif has said he wants the NHL to make its decision on participation for the 2026 Winter Olympics by 2024.
In both cases, the decisions took place within a year of their respective tournaments, with the cancellation of participation in 2022 coming just two months earlier. With this deadline, it would give the IIHF and its member nation more time to come up with backup options. Tardif also said the IIHF isn’t excited about the potential of the next World Cup of Hockey being played in February. The move would make it challenging for European nations to have their best lineups present without stopping European leagues. The men’s World Championship also occurs every May.
The NHL said late last year that there won’t be a World Cup in 2024, with the banishment of Russia over the war in Ukraine being top of mind.
