Will the AHL play next year?

[Marvin]

We know that there will be no AHL next year.  So how will line-ups be handled?  Will teams have 30 players in the NHL and everyone else in Europe?  How will 2-way contracts work?  How about player development for those not really ready for prime-time?

Did the AHL fold? 
 

Can’t believe CNN and Fox News both missed this.

Last I saw was:

• AHL cancelled remainder of 2019-20 season back in May.
• AHL formed task force to determine how to commence play in 2020-21 season.
• Recent indications are that beginning of 2020-21 season will be delayed (just as the NHL start has been delayed).

Maybe change the thread to a what if instead of a matter of fact.

Starting hockey when it's cold out is a bold move.

I’m glad to hear that there is a Task Force involved.

Pet peeve number 1,745,953.  Calling the up coming season "next year".  If it's happening in this calendar year (which is up for debate), it should be called next season.  Eliminate the ambiguity.  

This is right behind people calling 1st round draft picks "a number one pick".  I don't know what the ***** you are talking about with "number one pick".  P-Ham is notorious for this nonsense. 

Use the correct words so we can figure out what the hell you are talking about.
