Olympic Rinks Swap Dark Boards for Lighter Ones
Players at the Milano Cortina Olympics push back mid-tournament, and organizers at Santagiulia Arena swap out those deep turquoise boards for lighter blue and green after feedback from teams, the NHL, and NHLPA. Goaltenders like Jeremy Swayman flag visibility issues after a puck vanishes into the crowd-board blur against Denmark, forcing everyone to adapt on the fly in a venue built specifically for these games.
