Missourinet Mornings–Why the NHL needs to stick with the Olympics (VIDEO)

So today, the tables are turned. On this Missourinet Mornings video, I’m actually the one being interviewed. Bill Scott of Wisconsin Radio Network talks with me as we take a look at the men’s and women’s Olympic hockey teams in Sochi and whether or not the NHL should continue to lend its players to the Olympics moving forward.

If the NHL pulled out of the games, it would be a terrible mistake on many levels and I explain my reasons with Bill.

As far as women’s hockey, if you missed yesterday’s gold medal game between Team USA and Canada, you missed a helluva hockey game.  In terms of women’s sports, nothing comes close to the drama and excitement those two teams bring. When it comes to television viewing, no doubt those two hockey teams are on par with men’s sport.

Here is the feature that Bill Scott did with 1980’s U.S. star Mark Johnson, that we talked about.
