This remains a fluid situation as the NHL and the Nashville Predators work to get back on the ice to eventually crown a 2019-20 Stanley Cup winner.
Another step forward has likely been taken by the NHL and the NHLPA as they work to reach an agreement on the next phases of returning to play. The season has been on pause due to the COVID-19 pandemic for nearly four months.
Per NHL.com, the new agreement largely has to do with a new CBA that will extend through 2025-26, but it also has more immediate ramifications with key dates to get back to playing games.
