It is anticipated that Gary Bettman will likely have to answer some questions regarding recent developments with the five accused players, four of whom are league employees, in connection with the 2018 Team Canada Junior scandal.
Remember, Bettman has not yet addressed the subject for several weeks.
The topic of a possible expansion to Salt Lake City is also likely to be discussed by the commissioner.
Additionally, according to what was reported by journalist Pierre LeBrun, it would not be surprising to see Bettman make the official announcement of a World Cup as well.
In short, there should be a lot of interesting content answered by Bettman. It wouldn't be surprising if he takes advantage of the All-Star weekend to make a major announcement, so it will be an event not to be missed.
