Like many other sports organizations, the NHL is trying to figure out a plan to safely return to action after the COVID-19 pandemic forced the league to suspend operations Thursday, March 12.
One puzzle piece may be holding playoff games at neutral sites. As NHL deputy commissioner Bill Daly told Emily Kaplan and Greg Wyshynski of ESPN.com, cities and arenas have approached the league about holding games.
"We do have people putting together the comprehensive laundry list of what we would need from facilities and evaluating some facilities on some level," Daly told ESPN on Friday.
