As NHL owners and player reps continue to meet in order to iron out final details, the league is plotting for a January start to the regular season. It's expected that the NHL will go with a 56-game regular season. The continued closure of the Canada-USA border due to the COVID-19 pandemic almost assuredly means that the league will make a Canadian Division a certainty.

Last season, Edmonton Oilers captain Connor McDavid became the first player in NHL history to record a 100-point season in a campaign of fewer than 76 games. He defied the NHL 100-point scorer odds, reaching the 100-point plateau in just 53 games during the COVID-19 shortened 56-game NHL season. The NHL odds say that McDavid is the favorite to reach 100 points again this season at a betting line of +175.

NHL: Is There A Silver Lining To Lightning's Clouds?
Article posted on Monday 16 September
There's a theory put forth from the NHL odds that while in pursuit of the Stanley Cup, a team must learn how to lose before they can learn how to win. The Tampa Bay Lightning have certainly been dealt their share of harsh lessons. They lost the 2015 Cup final. They've been to the conference finals three times in five years. But they still haven't lifted Lord Stanley's mug.
Will Jack Hughes be the one, or is it Kaapo Kakko? The NHL entry draft is slated for June 21-22 at Rogers Arena in Vancouver. The New Jersey Devils hold the first overall selection for the second time in three years. Will they opt for American sensation Jack Hughes? Or has fantastic Finnish finisher Kaapo Kakko shown enough this season to pip Hughes as the post and go No. 1?
The Columbus Blue Jackets have never won a Stanley Cup series in franchise history. The New York Islanders have one playoff series win since 1993. Yet both of these teams are on the brink of advancing to the second round of the 2019 Stanley Cup playoffs. The Blue Jackets lead the Presidents' Trophy-winning Tampa Bay Lightning 3-0, and the Isles are up 3-0 on the Pittsburgh Penguins.
It's been said that there is no tougher trophy to win in professional sports than the Stanley Cup. Each spring, 16 of the NHL's 31 teams are left standing and set off in pursuit of the coveted Lord Stanley's mug. In 1893, Lord Stanley of Preston, then Governor-General of Canada, donated a cup to be presented to the champions of hockey. It's been the sole property of the NHL since 1926.
