NHL Rumors: More Details, Key Dates For Upcoming Season Revealed
The regular season would start Jan. 13 and end May 8
A framework for the upcoming NHL season is coming to light, and now more than ever it seems like the announcement of a 2020-21 campaign is nearing.
The NHL and NHLPA have tentatively agreed upon a 56-game season, but there are still a few more details to be hashed out — mainly figuring out if they’re going to be able to play in Canada.
But an NHL board of governors call is set for Sunday, at which point we could get even more direction about the upcoming campaign. More and more details trickled out ahead of the call Sunday morning.
Here are some of the latest reports.
Training camps reportedly are set to begin just before the end of the calendar year for the seven teams that were not in the bubbles earlier this year. The 24 teams that were in the bubbles would begin camp Jan. 3.
An increasing number of players are returning voluntarily to their team’s cities, and it seems more likely than ever that we’ll have hockey in mere weeks.
