The NHL's 4 Nations Face-Off has raised concerns for teams, particularly the Vegas Golden Knights, as star defenseman Shea Theodore sustained a week-to-week injury during Canada's opening game. Owner Bill Foley faces the risk of losing key players in a tournament that many believe is crucial for promoting the sport internationally. Fellow Knights player Alex Pietrangelo opted out of the tournament, highlighting the injury risks associated with such competitions. While injuries are part of sports, the league must balance player safety with the potential benefits of these international events.
