The NHL and NHL Players' Association are exploring options for an altered Stanley Cup playoffs this summer, but specific neutral-site locations have not been discussed.
"Other than the general understanding that they're looking at all possibilities, which includes neutral sites—neutral being defined as a place that isn't a home base for an NHL team," NHLPA Executive Director Donald Fehr told ESPN's Emily Kaplan and Greg Wyshynski. "We haven't had those discussions yet."
Kaplan and Wyshynski added:
"Fehr said any decision about the future of the 2019-20 regular season and Stanley Cup playoffs is tied to an easing of restrictions on travel, essential business and mass gatherings.
