Breaking: NHLPA votes 'YES' to the 24-team playoff tournament

Ladies and gentlemen it's starting to appear we are going to be watching 2019-2020 NHL playoff hockey soon enough. After the Return to Play committee helped create and finalize the 24-team playoff tournament format, the players have gone ahead and voted YES!

Regardless of the format, it wasn't going to please everyone, but this is a giant step in the right direction to get hockey back on the ice.

Sources are telling NHLTR the other votes are in and the majority have voted YES!. Pierre LeBrun also chimed in to remind us the NHL still needs to vote, but it's expected to hear a major announcement from the league in the day or so.


Sure feels like Hockey is back! :)
