Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said Sunday that players would -- at a minimum -- need to follow quarantine protocols if they were to arrive in Canada while the border remains closed due to the pandemic.

The NHL could face another hurdle if the league decides to continue the 2019-20 season in the near future — getting non-Canadian resident players across the border to join their respective teams.

"We recognize that it’s a possibility, but it depends on an enormous amount of things, and I don’t want to speculate on this until there’s more discussion." Under that timeline, the regular season would resume in July with the Stanley Cup final likely stretching into September. NHL commissioner Gary Bettman said recently that no decisions have been made and noted that government and medical officials will ultimately make the call on when sports can return.

DONT EVEN LET IT HAPPEN. ITS NOT THAT IMPORTANT. LIFE IS

He's just stating the obvious.

Why wouldn't they? The troops do. Politicians do. Us sports fans have to grasp the reality that these pro sports leagues are on the bottom of the agenda of getting back to normal. He went answering real questions about death and guns to can hockey players cross the border please?

Scrap the season or continue in sept then 2021 play half season. This is crazy!!

Nothing to do with hockey, he is a dockyard

And what quarantine rules do they follow once any sport season starts. Does he think they are going to 14 day quarantine every time they travel to the US and back? Lol the seasons are going to be 4 years long. Sorry PM Hitler but every team has their own Dr. for med. advice.

Buffalo Blue Jays it is.

EricEngels Why wouldn't they be quarantined?

The Crime Minister wants others to follow the rules that he doesnt

Same guy who basically let COVID in the front door when he allowed thousands to enter from the initial epicenter.

EricEngels Well, I guess games will be played in the US

And what about Canadians going the other way?

EricEngels Safety first. Yes, I'm talking to you troglodytes.

Don’t play games in Canada for the time being problem solved.

TSN_Sports stick to sports. You guys don’t conduct any logic.

Responsible leadership once again from JustinTrudeau .

Surprised he isn’t banning hockey sticks so criminals don’t use them from crimes.

Cancel the season in general

Cue moral outrage.
