The first ice hockey tournament as part of the Olympic Games was held at the 1920 Summer Olympics . Since 1924, ice hockey competitions began to be played in the program of the Winter Olympic Games . The women's ice hockey tournament has been included in the Olympic program since the 1998 Winter Olympics in Nagano . Between 1920 and 1968, the Olympic Hockey Tournament was also considered the World Ice Hockey Championship .
Participation
The following tables show the countries that participated in the ice hockey tournaments at the Olympic Games. For each country, the places shown were occupied by its national teams in tournaments, or dashes “-” if the national team did not participate in the competition this year. Interestingly, since 1984, NHL players have been allowed to take part in the Olympic Games, but the League itself allowed its hockey players to play for the national team at the Games only from 1998 to 2017, making a “window” for this in the regular season matches calendar.
