What is everyone’s thoughts on the season , will it start before end of the year. How long will it go? Will there be playoffs?

My spies are telling me they think the best case-scenario for starting is teams hitting the ice on the 21st but no games until after the first of the year. Conventional wisdom says the season will extend through March or beyond with Section play a possibility if things get under control. State tourney is a long-shot but possible.

My guess - a truncated season that starts around January 10 to allow for tryouts and a "preseason." Season ends on 3/20 with some sort of Section tournament, so the spring track / lacrosse seasons can begin end of March.

If the previous guidance holds limiting the teams to 2 games a week, that would still mean an 18-game regular season with up to 3 section games.

Then, the club hockey season, HP, etc. can start the end of March.

I will say this is an extreme bummer for any skater who'd like to enjoy his/her spring break.
