Less than 24 hours after a tentative agreement was reached on return-to-play protocols for Phases 3 and 4, the NHL and NHLPA announced they have reached a tentative agreement on a Memorandum of Understanding that adds four more years to the current Collective Bargaining Agreement.

Host Kyle Collington and co-host Kevin Durso are joined by a new guest, Josh Guertler to talk about everything from Oskar Lindblom’s final treatments to the latest on the NHL’s return to play and much more.

According to a report from ESPN’s Greg Wyshynski, the NHL and its players are closing in on a new CBA deal.

Four more in the Phillies organization tested positive for COVID-19, the Phillies announced on Tuesday.

Following the news of 11 positive tests for COVID-19 during Phase 2, a crucial week is ahead for the NHL in their efforts to return to play. This week could feature important updates on players testing positive and the selection of hub cities.

Host Kyle Collington and panelist Kevin Durso talk about the latest around the NHL, the upcoming draft lottery, the recent news about the Buffalo Sabres, 90s NHL jerseys, the possibility of creating a bubble within the hub cities and what life in the bubble would be like.

Among the players that are participating at Voorhees are Sean Couturier, Joel Farabee, Ivan Provorov, Mark Friedman and Sam Morin. For these players in particular, there is certainly an adjustment to trying to prepare for a stretch run and playoffs, especially with a lot of unknowns still out there.
