I wonder how much his opinion would’ve changed if Hawks were a top 3 team in the West going into this versus going for a quick 3 game sweep. Maybe he thought this 'playoff ' thing was really stooped. And team blows so.....

Toews has become a lot less if a legend over the last few years.
Hes a loon.

If he really didn't want anything to do with the Covid Cup, the players still have that opt-out clause. Any one player can choose not to play.

I heard Toews would only sign off on the plan if they stenciled "Meat is Murder" onto the ice.

Exhibition games about to start in 3 hours time.
This is how it will look like:

Elliotte Friedman and ESPN's Greg Wyshynski say they are hearing the new divisions are like this: Idea is that regular season games would be played inside the division only. There's 8 teams in the division, so maybe 6 games against each team and you get a 42 game schedule? Make it 8x and you have 64 games. Not sure there is enough time to play that many though. If you want the 2021-22 season to start normally, that is.

Playing the Penguins 6-8 times would be great. Hawks always beat them. And there's Detroit who are garbage. The Panthers I think the Hawks could take. Blues, Bolts, Predators are too good. Hawks could maybe, MAYBE, battle for that fourth spot with the Penguins/Jackets. Probably not. Hawks don't have a goalie.

Hawks and Wings will be battling it out for last in the Central by the looks of it.

There could be a Canadian team in the Conference Finals!

Projected time for NHL training camps approaches but we don't see any dates or announcements.
I wonder if early January start is still possible.

I’d bet late Jan/early Feb

I’d bet late Jan/early Feb I am still not convinced there will be a season..if there is not some sort of guarantee in regards to fans in the seats, the owners won't play. The entire Canadian division, as fun as I think it would be to watch, will have no chance at any attendance.

Mid-January seems more sensible. We're already close to Christmas. I like that the season would not overlap with the WJC.

13th January, perhaps.
