Here are some of the news stories that got our attention this week:
- W recentlye got a few more updates on the NHL’s plan for the 2021 season. The NHL, TSN and Sportsnet all had good write-ups of Bettman’s most recent media availability.
Bettman is adamant that he won’t ask players to play a whole season in a bubble, which makes sense considering how this year’s playoffs went. It sounds like the plan is to have a sort of hybrid bubble system, with teams spending a few weeks in a bubble, playing a bunch of games, then going back home for a bit before entering another bubble.
