Whoever is the US president would invoke the Defense production act to get the US vaccinated first.

40% of NHL revenue is from ticket sales. The US will have ticket sales and Canada will not.

Likely the US will open the border to the vaccinated NHL teams/groups but why would they play games in empty Canadian arenas.
It sounds like you haven't been following any of the news. Canada has multiple contracts for vaccines from different companies. We have dumped loads of money into them for these access rights. We have shared development on some of them. I don't think there is going to be all that big a difference as to when Canada and the US have vaccines.
