A five-week quarantine in a Beijing "isolation facility" was apparently too much for NHL players, and I can't blame them. To be honest, I'd be cautious of coming to China these days, let alone being confined and monitored for five weeks. Without delving too deep into international politics, I'm not convinced it's good to be congratulating China right now. Many countries, including Canada and the US, planned to "diplomatically boycott" the Beijing Olympics due to China's human rights abuses.
