How NHL GMs are handling the Olympic break

The NHL's Olympic break has presented general managers (GMs) with an opportunity to assess their teams and plan for the remainder of the season. With many players participating in the Winter Olympics in Milan Cortina, GMs are using this time to evaluate their roster, explore trade options, and make strategic decisions. Some GMs are focusing on scouting and analyzing their team's performance, identifying areas that need improvement. Others are actively engaging in trade discussions, exploring ways to strengthen their teams for the playoff push. Roster management, including potential call-ups from the minors, is also a priority as GMs seek to optimize their lineups. The Olympic break also allows GMs to attend league meetings and collaborate with their peers, sharing insights and discussing league-wide issues. This collaborative approach helps GMs make informed decisions that align with the broader goals of their organizations. Overall, the NHL's Olympic break presents GMs with a valuable opportunity to regroup, plan, and position their teams for success in the latter half of the season.
