The International Ice Hockey Federation is awaiting for the NHL and NHL Players Association to resolve the Olympic issue.IIHF president Rene Fasel has said several times during the past month that he believes he has come up with the money to cover the cost of NHL player contract insurance and travel, which he relayed again last week during a meeting with national hockey federations that included USA Hockey and Hockey Canada.Now Fasel awaits the decision from the NHL and NHLPA in the next month.Last week we met with the 12 participating teams to inform them of the ongoing developments in Korea, Fasel said Tuesday in a statement to ESPN.

That may certainly change, and a decision must be taken, either way, by Jan. 15.Another source told ESPN that NHLPA executive director Donald Fehr and commissioner Gary Bettman were scheduled to speak at some point next week.A vote would likely not be needed from NHL owners if the decision is not to go, however, its expected a vote would be needed if the league agrees to an Olympic deal.Cheap Air Force 270 .
