Get ready for an all-Canadian party when the NHL resumes its season with a 24-team playoff.
According to an industry source, both Toronto and Edmonton have been all-but-approved as the two hub cities to host the teams for the NHL’s return from the COVID-19 pause.
“Nothing’s official yet,” the source said, on the condition of anonymity.
Both the league and its players’ union talked into the early hours of Canada Day to iron out return-to-play details, COVID-19 protocols and other issues, that if agreed upon, would result in an extension to the current collective bargaining agreement.
