If things go as planned, and they start next season in December (I think January would be too late/ambitious if they intend to catch up in the next few years), it'll be a fast paced schedule like the NBA is.
There's going to be a lot of injuries coming as a result of this. Or at the very least, much more use of scratches to rest up players. Teams are gonna be making a lot of AHL callups, so organizational depth is going to be extremely crucial.
