Bettman said last night on Bob McGowan's show the NHL will do some tinkering with the bye week next year - most likely having half the league take one 5 day span and the other half a different five day span. The NHL would not want the whole league out at the same time due to the concern on " going dark".
Bettman also hinted that after next year, the NHL would prefer eliminating the bye week altogether.
