Can someone explain to me why the CHL started up then took a break then started up again?

Also when or if it gets to knock out stages?

How does the system work? is it single game elimination soon?
Since the 2017–18 season, 32 teams again participate in the group stage, with 24 of the entries coming from the six founding leagues (Swedish Hockey League, Finnish Liiga, Swiss National League A, Czech Extraliga, German DEL and Austrian/international EBEL) and all berths being earned through on-ice achievement: the "founding clubs" are no longer guaranteed a place in the competition. A maximum of five teams from each country are permitted, with the entries allotted to each country according to a coefficient system (best two leagues get five berths, next two get four, last two get three). The remaining eight places are given to the champions of the Norwegian, Slovakian, French, Belarusian, Danish, British and Polish leagues, as well as the champion of the Continental Cup. The teams are then be drawn into eight groups of four, with the top two teams in each group advancing to the knockout stage, which is contested as two-legged ties until a one-match final.
Super simple.

Today is game day 5. Game day 6 will be on the 15th. The first playoff-style game is Nov 12th with game two on the 19th. They do running score style games I believe as well, so in the return match, the team that lost the first game has to overcome the amount they lost by to advance.

and there's a guy named Chalupa.

This playlist has EVERYTHING. some songs will make you triggered. some songs will make you cry. but mostly, it will make you so hype you'll lose bladder control. (feel free to put this bad boy on shuffle).

Low key thought:

What the NBA is going through right now with China is maybe why the NHL will want to skip the next Olympics, despite being held in China.
