    NHL to suspend play tomorrow?

    Darren Dreger on NBC Sports Network just said the NHL could suspend play Thursday, cancel the rest of the regular season and eventually resume with the playoffs. Meaning the Wild would finish one point out of the postseason. Crazy times.

    NHL Network said most likely will be cancelled. Sucks because I've been circling a game on Friday for about 5 days now that I was gonna hammer to get some losses back...STL at home vs SJ. Then I was gonna take half of that and hammer STL vs Ottawa on Sunday.

    I also have a large parlay with STL and kings tonight and caps tomorrow, looks like that will get reduced

    This is beyond horrendous...
    there is some evil lurking around every corner.
    Everyone be very strong and do right.
    Now is the time to get right with God if so inclined.
    May every one be well during these unprecedented days.
    Lucifer got some 'splainin' to do.

    I head what they might do is any team within 4 points or something fights for the last slot in a single game knock out or some plan like that.

    Then the Wild should have taken that 2/15 home game with San Jose more seriously.

    if that playoff scenario Dreger mentioned exists, then my Canucks look like they just made it. We will see.

    I'm listening to sports radio right now these guys are saying their sources said the NHL will likely go with a reduced playoffs scenario. Then they started to speculate the first rounds could be a best of 3 or best of 5 scenario instead of best of 7. This is where I heard NHL was suspended about 30 mins before any other sources or anyone here posted about it. So I'd say it's pretty credible.

    My guess from what I read.

    There aint many games left so I doubt they will. If anything, they will go directly into the playoffs and depending on the timeline, they will play a full playoff schedule or a reduced best-of series.

    These are the teams in. https://www.tsn.ca/nhl/standings


    we will see. My guess from what I read.

    If you guys read between the lines, some governors are saying any events over 250, 500, 1000 people banned until May 1st then reevaluate. So at that rate NHL would be a full month behind schedule. It's gonna be hard to make that up and that's best case scenario May 1st. What if this virus sticks around longer.

    I think the season is over or at best they'll have to shorten the series until conf. finals. These guys don't wanna play until August then start next season a couple weeks later. It's in serious jeopardy. If it gets delayed past May 15th, they'll have to just cancel the season. Little room for error.

    ECHL officially announces cancellation of the 2019-20 season, first North American pro hockey league to do so. Commissioner Ryan Crelin said it's "an emotional time" for the league, players and staff.
