Everyone is worried about finishing this season...

Has anyone thought about next season not starting?

I have, yes, but i would hope by that time we can at least get some hockey in, probably without fans though.

One week training camp
Normal playoffs
Start next season late and make up time over the next 1-3 years


I agree with these points. Everything is already fucked up schedulewise, so might as well just adjust slowly over the coming years.
The competition was fierce enough to warrant a full regular season to be played. Would only be fair.

Very unlikely we have any sort of vaccine this year.

Everyone getting it and not worrying about it don’t belong in the same sentence

i mean once everybody gets it its going to do what it does and we move on the survivors fought it off and likely built up an immunity towards it
obviously it would be worst case scenario but at the rate its going its something thats likely to happen if they dont find a treatment for it soon

As much as I want to dream about that there's still things like staff working etc

Not to mention there still might be travel bans and they could get so strict to stop state to state travel


Hoping for the best though

The so called herd immunity doesn't do dick if the virus mutates and then you are looking at a new one to build immunity for...

No point quoting him, he expected a vaccine in a couple months too

Sadly it's people like that who will continue spreading the virus for a long time to come
