ZURICH, Switzerland — The International Ice Hockey Federation is preparing a proposal to add 3-on-3 hockey to the Winter Olympics. The sport's worldwide governing body must make its submission of interest to the International Olympic Committee by January. The IOC's decision would be due by the end of next year. If approved, 3-on-3 hockey would debut at the 2030 Games in the French Alps. There has been 3x3 basketball at the past two Summer Olympics. The IIHF says doing the same with hockey could allow up to 240 more players to be Olympians.
