The NHL and the Players’ Association agreed to a tentative deal on returning to play, which also includes tentative agreement on a four-year extension of the collective bargaining agreement. If both are ratified by owners and players, games would resume on August 1st, with the NHL going straight to its expanded 24-team playoff format. The hub cities for play will be Canada’s Toronto and Edmonton for the qualifying round and at least the first two playoff rounds.
