NHL Breaks for Olympics

Hockey-CanadaThe last few weeks, hockey fans from around the globe have shifted their attention from the NHL season to Olympic competition. Unlike baseball (where professional players don’t compete in the Olympics) and basketball (which doesn’t interrupt the NBA season), the NHL goes on hiatus for the Winter Games. This makes Olympic hockey one of the most competitive—and entertaining—winter sports to watch.

The NHL is one of the most diverse professional sports organizations, with many of the top players coming from outside of the United States. This breadth of talent means that many countries have legitimate hopes of reaching the medal podium. So until the Olympics are over, trade in your NHL gear for some hockey merchandise from your native land.
