No talks between NHL, NHLPA on neutral sites yet

The NHL and NHLPA have yet to have discussions on possible neutral site locations for games this season, NHLPA executive director Donald Fehr told ESPN on Saturday.

"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," Fehr said. "We haven't had those discussions yet."

Last week, deputy commissioner Bill Daly told ESPN that the league was still in the stages of compiling a list of potential locations.

“We do have people putting together the comprehensive laundry list of what we would need from facilities and evaluating some facilities on some level,” Daly said.
