No one knows if or when hockey will return this season. And if it does, in what capacity? The league could finish out the rest of the regular season, which had about three weeks left. They could also go straight into the playoffs. If they were to chose that option, we would get to see another matchup between the Flyers and Penguins.
It wouldn’t be the first time the two teams met up in the postseason. It would be the eighth time the two have played each other. That dates back to their first matchup in the 1989 Patrick Division Finals.
