The NHL is officially withdrawing its players from the 2022 Winter Olympics. The league made the announcement Wednesday, citing a rise in COVID-19 cases. The decision was widely anticipated after an anonymous source close to the matter said Tuesday that the league won’t participate. The NHL has already postponed 50 games so far this season, including 32 this week.
