Apparently, the hockey games during the 2010 Vancouver Olympics will be played at the Canucks’ GM Place which means athletes will compete on an NHL-sized rink instead of the international standard. What do you think of this?
I actually really dislike it because I think it places the importance of the NHL and host country higher than what has been used in international competition (and I’m Canadian!). I just feel like it gives North Americans an advantage…
