Posted - 12/14/2005 : 09:16:28 Sergei Fedorov has declined the invite to the Olympics because he wants to focus on getting accustomed to his new team and take care of his nagging groin injury. I can understand where he is coming from on the injury but missing the Olympics so he can focus on missing the playoffs is crazy. He could help his country win gold in the Olympics - what could be better than that?
