NHL stars ordered to use new equipment at the Olympics

NHL players will be required to wear new neck protection gear during the upcoming Olympic tournament after a 12-year absence from the event.

NHL players are set to return to international competition at the upcoming Olympics after a 12-year hiatus. In a move driven by the International Ice Hockey Federation (IIHF), these players will now be mandated to wear neck guards, a piece of equipment that is not commonly used in the NHL. Only a handful of players in the league, including Finnish player Patrik Laine, who is not part of the Olympic team, have utilized this protective gear.
