Bob Nicholson fuming over COC jersey decision
Bob Nicholson,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], president of Hockey Canada,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], is set to meet with IOC member Rene Fasel. (John Woods/Canadian Press)Hockey Canada president Bob Nicholson has few nice words for the Canadian Olympic Committee over a decision to keep the sports federation's logo off the jerseys at the 2010 Winter Games in Vancouver.
Canada's national hockey teams - men's,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], women's and sledge - will not be allowed to wear Hockey Canada's famous player-skating-out-of-the-maple-leaf emblem at the Vancouver Games after the International Olympic Committee decided to enforce a 13-year-old edict that prohibits sports federation logos on team jerseys.
"The COC is supposed to lead Canada into the Olympics and hopefully this isn't the way the COC is going to lead us over the next 13 months,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," Nicholson said Wednesday.
"We do not know now how we can interact with them and how we should interact over the next 13 months. There will have to be decisions made whether we participate in orientation meetings,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], or just do our own thing leading to Vancouver…
"I just wish they would support us at the IOC level and they did not do that and I don't like that type of teammate,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]."
Nicholson said he will take his case up with Rene Fasel,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the IOC's point man for the Vancouver Games. As president of the International Ice Hockey Federation,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Fasel will be in Ottawa for the 2009 world junior hockey championship.
"He told me if the COC endorsed it,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], he felt confident he would get [an extension on the exemption],[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," said Nicholson.
"We're pushing this. We have to find out exactly where our situation is with the IOC,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]," said Nicholson.
"We will talk to some IOC lawyers in the next 24 to 48 hours and then we will talk to Rene Fasel and start our strategy from there,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych]."
There's money in the rift between Hockey Canada and the COC,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
Hockey Canada stands to lose million of dollars in sales if it can't sell its distinct jersey,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], cash that could flow to the COC if it is allowed to capitalize on the popularity of the Canadian Olympic team.
Hockey Night In Radio host Gord Stellick predicts Steven Stamkos merits the Hart Trophy as NHL MVP for a 60-goal season and Erik Karlsson will win Norris Trophy as top defenceman,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych].
