The NHL seems to always be behind on analytics and pushing new ideas in terms of player/game management.
I suspect the next thing we see in the NHL is load management for star players, trying to get them to a certain number games like coaches do with starting goalies. The bubble teams will still have to go all out until April, but teams safely in playoff spots will start to manage stars.
