Breaking: NBA will allow teams to open practice facilities on May 1st, great news for NHL
In just the last few hours, reports are breaking that the NBA is going to allow teams in geographies where local governments have eased their stay-at-home restrictions to open facilities. This is huge news for NHL fans because they have been in almost lockstep with the NBA on dealing with COVID-19.
