Each team, and NHL’ soon-to-be team in Seattle, will play a one-time matchup against another club in a three-game “NHL 20” series as all matches will be played on PlayStation 4.
Electronic Arts (EA) and the NHL Foundation are donating a combined $100,000 in support of the CDC Foundation’s COVID-19 relief efforts. The event is a part of the NHL’s #HockeyAtHome initiative designed to remind fans to stay safe, stay home and play together.
