Breaking: NBA suspends seasons due to Coronavirus, is NHL next?

Anthony Scultore Updated: Mar 11, 2020

The NBA postponed a game right before it started, as one of their first players has been diagnosed with the Coronavirus. Just now they have announced the season is suspended. With the NHL being impacted as well, how soon before we see something similar? According to Darren Dreger all options on the table.

All scenarios being discussed and possible. Playing in empty buildings across the league. Postponement. Pushback or delay to end regular season. A cap on the regular season followed by a break before playoffs. Everything is in play at this point. https://t.co/lhLVE5xhdO
