A recent report by NHL insider Darren Dreger has indicated that the league is looking for new ways to market the NHL to the public next season. One idea floated around is to have all 32 teams play on the same day, which would have a total of 16 games played in the span of one day.
This could lead to some very interesting scheduling conflicts, as many fans may miss out watching games they'd hoped to catch in favor of another one. Another thought is that the NHL could have rivalry match-ups sprinkled throughout the day as the main marketing pieces. Let's hope Bettman knows what he's doing here.
