Looking Ahead to the Highlights of Next Year's NHL Season

The NHL has released their 2024-25 schedule. We look at all the highlights including the NHL debut of Macklin Celebrini with the San Jose Sharks, the first NHL game for the Utah Hockey Team, the raising of the Florida Panthers Stanley Cup banner and some great matchups like the return of Steven Stamkos to Tampa Bay with the Nashville Predators.
We also analyze some preliminary discussions about changes to the NHL season including starting earlier and increasing the number of regular season games.
And the NHL has announced the first six players for the Four Nations Tournament in February. Who made the preliminary rosters for Canada, the USA, Finland and Sweden and what can we tell about each team thus far.
All this and more on today's Locked On NHL Podcast with Rachel Donner and Gil Martin.

We all like our rivalry games, but with the number of teams in the NHL, it becomes difficult to have the number of these games. The only way around this is to alternate, by year, which Western Conference division the East Conference division will play. It is not the best situation. I am an Islanders fan and I would really like to McDavid and the Oilers at least once a year. Under the alternating year scenario, it won’t happen. We cannot have it both ways, with the NHL so big.
