That trophy was just brought in in like '99 or something...does it really need to be renamed already?

And yeah, "Russian Rocket", huh?

I think Canada has a mandatory 14 quarantine for incoming folks. Might that goof up any Canadian cities?

NHL, NHLPA Agree on Opening Date for Formal Training Camps [July 10]
https://media.nhl.com/public/news/14007

Depending on how long training camps run, we're probably looking at a late July/early August start date. Which would mean these playoffs could run until October.

Vegas was voted the 4th best ice in the league by the players. The only three cities with better ice were all Canadian: Winnipeg, Edmonton, and Montreal.

I remember reading something about their ice being decent considering how hot it is, but I wouldn't have guessed it was that good.

https://www.nhlpa.com/player-poll/2019-20

Side note with the 2019-20 poll on the same page: Penguins were voted as having the 4th best visitors locker room. They really should have cited tradition and kept the same specs from the visitors' locker room across the street.

It was voted as some of the best ice, but it wasn’t the middle of summer at the time.

If I get to choose between playoff hockey and starting the season on time I'll pick playoff hockey, thank you.
