Uncertainty is the governing body of the NHL and all sporting leagues around the globe during this COVID-19 pandemic.
A plethora of rumors featuring potential comeback strategies began upon the suspension of the 2019-20 calendar year. Those include neutral site games in Manchester, NH and North Dakota, a potential 30-team playoff, and even finishing this season in the fall.
But the truth is no one knows if or when the NHL will resume play this season. We are in uncharted territories, and there is a real possibility that there will be no Stanley Cup awarded this season.
