Report: AHL to participate in the Olympics

Despite losing 70 games due to the COVID outbreak, the AHL will make their players available to their National teams if selected.

Sportsnet's Jeff Marek reported:

"In the next 10 days or so the AHL will make a decision on whether they will allow players under AHL contracts to participate in the Olympics, now we expect this to get the rubber stamp much like it did in 2018".

During Saturday's intermission, the AHL mentioned the following names as prospective Olympians. Devan Dubnyk (PTO w/ Charlotte) Cody Franson (Hershey) Jason Garrison (Syracuse) and Josh Ho-Sang (Toronto - Team Canada). Cody Goloubef (Belleville - Team Canada).
