I've been playing around with the Olympics with mostly working results so far (made all of them18 team tournaments instead of 12, adding 2 teams for each group).
DB Start date = 2020
These are my settings, the settings focused on dates:
Olympic Pre-Qualification
Basic Data: Initial start year offset = 0
Comp Rules: Draw date = 1.12.2020
Stages, Schedule Dates, Stages 1-3=5 Feb to 9 Feb, Year Offset = 1 (plays in 2021 of the 2020-21 season)

Olympic Final Qualification
Basic Data: Initial start year offset = 1
Comp Rules: Draw date = 1.10.2021
Stages, Schedule Dates, Stages 1-3=7 Nov to 11 Nov, Year Offset = 0 (plays in 2021 of the 2021-22 season)

Olympic Hockey Tournament
Basic Data: Initial start year offset = 1
Comp Rules: Draw date = 1.12.2021
Stages, Schedule Dates, Stages 1-3=14 Feb to 18 Feb , Year Offset = 1, Stage 4=20 Feb to 25 Feb (plays in 2022 of the 2021-22 season)

I've found everything fires correctly, but even when there is a winner, it doesn't always record in the history, tweaking some settings (specifically the Day setting) to see if it resolves that.

As far as the offset year, i base it from the 2020-21 season (or the starting date of the db), I tweaked it a bit from initial releases as I was messing around with different settings.

What are your settings? Specifically, when do your final qualifying games end, and when is the start date of the Olympic Hockey Tournament draw date? I think this is where I changed some settings.

From my trial and error testing, I've found sometimes the Bronze medal game was not firing.

I changed the day of the week of the scheduled games to -1 as well as the draw days.

Running a little longer test now, but it seems to has resolved the issue for now

Are you editing the db or your saved game?

Save game edits don't typically work.

As for the issue, I was able to make the Olympics work as desired, double check the dates, you may need to adjust the draw dates.

Also, the draw Days and game Days (not dates) change those to -1 or [None] and I've ran the sim up to 2034 with all the Olympics playing as desired.

If you are still having issues, feel free to upload it and I can take a look.
