Re: NHL Season suspended - Now what?
there is a rumor floating around, I doubt if it's authentic or is valid but you never know.Pierre LeBrun@PierreVLeBrun
The NHLPA’s Executive Board (31 player reps) is in the process of voting on the 24-team Return to Play format. Voting could spill over into tomorrow. Should know results tomorrow night.6:33 PM · May 21, 2020
Players called to return to team cities.
I think there is still difficulty getting around and that would be my reason to think this is a wishful fan hallucinating.

More;
Arash Madani chats with Elliotte Friedman and Chris Johnston to discuss the latest news on the NHL's potential 24-team postseason format. Plus, are Canadian cities in the running to host NHL games if the league returns?

Teams or the league would almost certainly charter flights to Europe to pick up their assets
Is there even international commercial flights available right now?

Re: NHL Season suspended - Now what?
Yes, there are still international flights. Coming into Canada they are funnelled through Pearson, Montreal or VCR. There is a mandatory 14 day quarantine in place for anyone entering Canada or the USA. Flights are very very limited though.The Brown Wizard wrote: ↑Fri May 22, 2020 8:26 am Teams or the league would almost certainly charter flights to Europe to pick up their assets

This raised my eyebrow a bit. Just have to buck-up, go with the flow and be happy to still be aliveThe NHL is open to having the playoffs extend into September and pushing the start of the 2020-21 season as late as January -- or when fans can begin attending games in some capacity.

Re: NHL Season suspended - Now what?
Yep. We can still fly direct to China. So, I would assume we can fly to Europe as well. Heck, at the very least, our Swedes can fly to China first, and then fly here.The Brown Wizard wrote: ↑Fri May 22, 2020 8:26 am Teams or the league would almost certainly charter flights to Europe to pick up their assets

Yes, our borders are closed. Like Quebec illegal refugees closed.
The Cup is soooooo ours!!!!!!!
Re: NHL Season suspended - Now what?
Just don't fack up next season too badly is all I ask. I would rather see this season scrubbed completely than have next year's season and playoffs also mangled up. We need to flatten the curve regarding how many seasons will have an asterisk attached to them.Micky wrote: ↑Fri May 22, 2020 1:11 pm .

Re: NHL Season suspended - Now what?
Up till a couple days ago, I strongly felt that way too. I'm trying to accept what they're attempting is what is what all parties, including the fans, want.Tciso wrote: ↑Fri May 22, 2020 1:46 pmJust don't fack up next season too badly is all I ask.

However if this proposal is not given the thumbs up unanimously and carried out in short order and will take even more time to work out, then
absolutely; forget it, cut your losses and put all effort in to the 20/21 season.

That's why I said what I did but it brings up something that I was wondering and that is would they allow teams to come back to their homeStrangelove wrote: ↑Fri May 22, 2020 1:34 pmDamn, I was hoping you'd link to the idiot kid on the internet who posted that bullshit nugget so I could delete this post.

cities to have mini training camps? Be great for local fans just to get some local imagery from the rink.
I'm doubting that's in the cards.
