90 more days.

I do think the NHL can get this playoff season in - though I think it was pretty dumb to do this play-in round.

I'm a lot less confidence about fending off the virus again in winter.

And I'm really wondering how these minor leagues and junior leagues will develop prospects with fans unable to attend games.

[Mister Ed]

Waiting until December 1st for any Red Wings games is going to be a loooooong time.

 

[ShanahanMan]

Waiting until December 1st for any Red Wings games is going to be a loooooong time.

On the plus side, almost non stop hockey action between August and next year.

 

[Lil Sebastian Cossa]

Waiting until December 1st for any Red Wings games is going to be a loooooong time.

Now arriving to the Ann Arbor Ice Cube, Dylan Larkin and Luke Glendening!

Waiting until December 1st for any Red Wings games is going to be a loooooong time.

On the plus side, we don't have to sit through any current Wings hockey until at least December!

Appears the have agreed on the CBA, with the dates you have outlined. Three more months until the draft, lol.

At least I get to watch the Caps play.

NHL, NHLPA approve restart; 4-yr. CBA extension
