NHL training camps set to open July 10, if medical and safety conditions allow

TORONTO – The NHL and the NHL Players’ Association have announced that training camps will open July 10, provided medical and safety conditions allow and the parties reach an agreement on resuming play.

The opening of training camps for the 24 teams resuming play would start Phase 3 of the league’s plan to return to action.

Both the NHL and the NHLPA stated that the length of the camps and the start date for resumption of play will be determined at a future date.

The league suspended its schedule in March because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The return-to-play blueprint, which will eventually require the approval of health and government officials to get off the ground in two “hub” cities would begin with separate, three-game round-robin tournaments for the top four clubs in both the Eastern and Western Conference.

Any ties at the end of round-robin play will be broken by regular-season points percentage, and that the seeding order will stay the same throughout the playoffs.
