News

  • The NHL announced that the New Jersey Devils will face off against the Philadelphia Flyers on February 17, 2024 at MetLife Stadium in the NHL Stadium Series.
    • Additionally, the New York Islanders will be the host to New York Rangers on February 18, 2024.
    • This will be the first set of contests to take place at MetLife Stadium, home of the NFL’s New York Giants and New York Jets

  • The logos for the 2023-24 events (2023 Heritage Classic, 2024 NHL Winter Classic, and 2024 NHL All-Star Game) were unveiled.  The official logo for the 2024 NHL Stadium Series will be unveiled at a later date.

  • In a few notes from NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman’s press conference today, the following items were announced
    • The sale of the Ottawa Senators should be completed in the next few weeks 

    • Talks between the NHL and the NHLPA have once again resumed on the World Cup of Hockey and that is a priority on both sides of the table.

    • Joel Quenneville and Stan Bowman have both requested independent meetings and those will be conducted once the Stanley Cup Final has ended.  Neither Quenneville or Bowman are eligible to work for an NHL team.

    • The NHLPA’s escrow debt will not be paid off by the end of the season, and thus the salary cap may only increase to $1M for the 2023-24 season.  A larger bump of the salary cap should then occur for the 2024-25 season.

    • Expansion was discussed and is not a priority but did confirm interest from different parties, widely rumoured to be Atlanta and Houston

    • Furthermore on the expansion/relocation news, the NHL has heard from Salt Lake City from NBA Governor of the Utah Jazz, Ryan Smith.

    • NHL Deputy Commissioner Bill Daly said that there is no ongoing investigation into the incident with Colorado Avalanche F Valeri Nichushkin in Seattle earlier in the postseason.  Daly added that Nichushkin will be eligible to play during the 2023-24 season

    • Bill Daly also discussed that the investigation into sexual assault allegations surrounding the 2018 Canadian World Juniors team has concluded.  The report should be delivered to the NHL later in the summer
