Some stuff to look forward to in modified CBA: Flat salary cap (unless changed, numbers were $81.5M next two years, $82.5M in 2022-23); cap on

escrow (starting at 20 per cent next season, moving down after that); return to Olympics (pending agreement with IOC)...

10 per cent of next season’s salary deferred; language for right to opt-out of Return to Play. Also, NHL fought for changes to contract structure — limits

on signing bonuses and less salary fluctuation on a year-to-year basis. We’ll see how that looks.

And I think looser Louis is owed about 3 million today...

On critical dates, one we can pencil in — we are using @TSNquizmaster’s No. 2 pencil — is Free Agent Frenzy(?) on Nov. 1, 2020. We know this, for now, because 2019-20 contracts set to expire on June 30 have been extended to Oct. 31. So Nov. 1 would be Day 1 of 2020-21 contracts.

I'm hoping it gets cancelled so as to minimize the fuckage to the 2020-21 season.

If this restart happens dat dere will be more like a 2021-21 season = January start?

And if the restart is cancelled, the Leaves don't get to participate in the Laffy Lotto.

But you need 100% to overcome Canuckluck.

Even with those odds I do not trust the NHL.

The current pandemic could also play a role in things, not only if it extends for a while yet but also on the schedule for that season. 2020-21 is expected to start in December at the earliest and run some time into the early summer. Knowing the Olympics cause a sizable gap in the schedule for 2021-22, it’s going to be difficult to bump up the start time for that season with the preceding playoffs running long. Accordingly, if this comes to fruition, we could be seeing playoff hockey in the summer not just this season (if they are able to get back to action) but for the next two as well.
