    Still to be determined. But Jan 15th or Jan 19th will be one of those 2 dates. Projected 48 or 50 game season.

    In all likelihood this is the case and that's certainly what they are planning for, so that's what we're planning on in my leagues. The only caution I would make is that there is still a lot that needs to happen from a legal perspective to codify and ratify the CBA so its not a guarantee it will be one of those dates

    I'm personally hoping for the Sataurday....nothing beats a Saturday night full of hockey and you can bet your ass that every team would be playing if that were to be the first day.

    IMO it will start Jan 15. Too much money to be made by both sides to let it slip to Jan 19.

    January 19th, per TSN.ca 9:54am this morning.

    The NHL really needs those two weeks to ramp up.
    The scheduling alone will probably take a ton of time.
