A huge announcement is coming later today from NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman regarding the plan to return to action for the 2019-20 NHL season and the current season for the Nashville Predators.
The announcement will be aired on NBCSN and NHL Network locally, as well as streamed online.
The 24-team playoff format is expected to be formally announced, as well as plans for playoff seeding and possible matchups in the play-in series.
There will probably be some details that will remain unclear, but this is at least another step in the right direction to getting hockey back, and our Nashville Predators.
