The NHL and NHLPA announced today that plans to host the World Cup of Hockey in 2024 have been scrapped, hoping to postpone the event until 2025. The league's brief statement reads as follows:

Over the last year, the NHL and the NHLPA have been working on plans to conduct the next World Cup of Hockey, the premier international best-on-best hockey tournament, in February 2024. Unfortunately, in the current environment it is not feasible to hold the World Cup of Hockey at that time. We continue to plan for the next World Cup of Hockey, hopefully in February 2025."
