The American Hockey League and the Wolf Pack are facing their toughest challenge yet as they try and plan for the 2020-2021 season. While eyes are shifted towards a potential October puck drop in the minors, the National Hockey League is continuing with their pause and are prepping plans to finish the remainder of the 2019-2020 season. The NHL has money through sponsorships and television revenue incentivizing them to complete the season and award the Stanley Cup. The minor leagues have little to no television revenue and less sponsorship revenue to sustain completing this year which led to the cancellation.
