NHL commissioner says cancelling season “not something I’m even contemplating”

NHL commissioner Gary Bettman on Tuesday afternoon dismissed any notion that the league will not be able to resume its season and award the Stanley Cup at some point in the next several months.

“I believe that if the right time comes, and the right circumstances, based on all of the options that we’re considering and our ability to execute them, we’ll get this season done,” Bettman said.
