Avs’ Barrie among 24 NHL players filing for arbitration
Ray Whitney to caddie for Graham DeLaet at Rio 2016
Ray Whitney has been out of the NHL for two years, but the retired forward is heading to the Olympics this summer - as a caddie.
The 44-year-old will be on the bag for Canadian golfer Graham DeLaet - whose regular caddie, Julien Trudeau, will not go to Brazil due to Zika virus concerns.
"Ray Whitney has been put forward by Graham to caddie for him at the Olympic Games and Golf Canada supports Graham’s decision," Golf Canada director of corporate communications Dan Pino told Yahoo! Sports.
This will mark an Olympic debut for both athletes as golf is played for the first time at the Olympics since 1904.
Whitney has represented Canada on four separate occasions at the IIHF World Hockey Championship.

Last season, Boll was limited to just 30 games, recording one goal and two assists.
