I’m pretty sure the schedule includes the Olympic break.

here's what NEEDS to happen. We need to RUN up the score on that faux Chi team! I'm talking 13-2.

The NHL adjusted the schedule to fill in the original Olympic break, is there a way for us to do the same?

I think the adjusted NHL schedule is related to the placement of postponed games (I am happy to report the "G" was able to play all of our games in front of packed houses despite the scary COVID Pandemic) so we don't have any games to sprinkle into the void.
As I was laying in bed last night I was musing with the feasibility of have a slimmed down olympics of our own. Given the NHL national breakdown I was thinking we could probably field 8 teams broken into 2 pools.
USA
Canada
Sweden
Finland
Russia
Czech
Slovakia
World
Each team plays 3 round robin pool games for seeding and then teams play across pools with reseeding after every round.

I am going to check the tables to see if I have the birthplace of the players to run some queries to identify citizenship for team assembly

OK, we didn't have the nationality but I modified the game scraper code to provide it so I have an extract that shows the nationality of players. I will run some more queries either later today or tomorrow to create some extracts for us to pick the teams from.
