Canadian Division in America? The latest on the 2020-2021 NHL season

The Government of Canada may force the All-Canadian division to play in America. In a statement released by health officials, in essence it said they will not make any exceptions.

“The Government of Canada’s priority is to protect the health and safety of Canadians. The resumption of sports events in Canada must be undertaken in adherence to Canada’s measures to mitigate the importation and spread of COVID-19. NHL teams and other professional sports teams must operate within the rules of their provincial jurisdictions for sports or sporting events.”
