Everything too slow
Acting like babiesComment -
I thought they said August 1 the playin round starts. I wish they would just wait now, nba can get away with playing in summer. Nhl in August is just oddOriginally posted by 2daBankComment -
Nhl season will definitely resume however if during the time allotted to get back in shape(ie mini training camp) should the covid case begin to rise again they will not resume to finish the 2020 playoffs and will try to start the 2020/2021 season during the normal start from 2019Comment -
There was a talk show in pgh that doc emric was on and that what he said would more or less happenComment -
The playoff schedule for the NBA was set intially, not sure if they need games before the tourney...

Looks good except it excludes regular season games starting July 31st.Originally posted by KVBComment -
I think it's just a 22 or so team playoff and you're right no dates yet.Originally posted by 2daBankComment -
NBA looks stupid playing regular season just to get Zion in.Originally posted by LT ProfitsComment -

NHL Playoffs will be 24 teamsOriginally posted by KVB
- Each conference will be assigned a hub city for the playoffs
- 24-team postseason format
- The bottom eight qualifying teams in each conference will play a best-of-5 series to get into the playoffs
- The top four seeds will play in a round robin to determine seeding
- Unknown if the bracket will re-seed after each round
Comment -
The bottom eight teams playing best-of-5 series will use NHL Playoff rules.Originally posted by LT Profits
Round Robin with top four teams will use regular season rules, tiebreaker will be regular season point percentage (points/games played).
I am unsure whether or not there will be travel between the two hub cities for Stanley Cup Finals.Comment -
Lt u have any leans?
I like the rangers to make noise.Comment -
Total GUESS on my part here, but hub with finalist with better regular season point percentage may host entire finals.Originally posted by LT ProfitsComment -
Honestly I have done no handicapping at all since leagues stopped, will start after I come back from vacation July 17th.Originally posted by lakerboyComment -
I thought I saw they were reseeding, so if Montreal beats Pittsburgh, then they will play the 1 seed, as an example.Originally posted by LT ProfitsComment -
This is ridiculous including the playin tourney if you are within 4 games of 8th. They will be able to give them an easy "regular season" schedule as well because the west will play only 8 of the other 12 teams.Originally posted by lakerboyComment -
I feel like they should shorten the reg season part and extend the playin tiuneyComment -
OK, i just copied my post from a month agoOriginally posted by thetrinityComment -
I think most people don’t care anymore other than footballComment -
Kinda surprised they chose to overlapOriginally posted by jjgold
nba was not gonna miss out thoComment -
This whole thing is sickening nowComment -
Hockey starts July 29th lines are posted at 5D.
A long way away so anything could happen.Comment -
Wait until all of this is played in front of nobody. The novelty will wear off quickly, never mind the summer for the NHL & NBA. Especially playoffs where you need and want crowds. I posted this before and I'll do it again, good luck without this.
START AT 2:56 and/or 3:48

All that matters is we have games to bet on, everything else is secondary.Originally posted by MicrophoneWait until all of this is played in front of nobody.

I think league WANTS July 29th, but no official announcement yet.Originally posted by Mike HuntertzComment -
Just shit can both seasons. By the time they crown the fake champ in both leagues. Next season will have started. Pull the plug.Comment -
No worries about next season, NBA is already set, if there is Game 7 of NBA Finals it would be October 16th and next season starts on Christmas Day.Originally posted by clockwise1965
NHL should have similar timeframe once restart date is official.Comment
