Gary Bettman Says NHL-NHLPA Talks on a New CBA Are 'in Really Good Shape'

  • On Wednesday, the NHL’s top executive and the head of the players’ association indicated that collective bargaining negotiations are moving forward positively well before the existing agreement ends in September 2026.
  • Negotiations began later than anticipated in April due to reasons on both sides, so no agreement was announced before the Stanley Cup Final.
  • Key issues include using the long-term injured reserve as a salary cap workaround, while state income tax advantages for some teams will not be addressed in the new CBA.
  • Bettman characterized the negotiations as productive, professional, and friendly, while Walsh expressed optimism, noting that discussions are progressing consistently and advancing positively.
  • The ongoing negotiations and positive tone suggest a stable relationship that could avoid past labor disruptions, though no timeline for a new deal has been set.
