Thankfully, it appears that the NHL and NHLPA’s silence was more a symptom of a holiday than it was anything else... probably. The Athletic’s Pierre LeBrun detailed some of the aspects of yesterday’s talks on Twitter. Nothing financial was addressed, but key aspects of how the season will be played were focused on, such as the start date and length of camps and the length of the season - 56 games seems to be favored.
The biggest news is that the January 1st start date that the NHL was aiming for is off of the table.
