The NHL's deadline is September 1, 2019. The NHLPA's deadline is September 15, 2019

The league and players have met regularly throughout the summer and are due to sit down together again next week. The discussions are being held with each side facing a decision inside the next month about whether to trigger an early termination to the current CBA.
However, it remains to be seen if either will pursue the reopener option at a time when there appears to be much more labour harmony than strife.
