Frank Seravalli mentionned that Bettman will announce a plan to hold an international tournament with NHLers:
"Sources say #NHL + #NHLPA plan to announce this afternoon 2025 international tournament hosted in Montréal and Boston.

Four nations: Canada, Finland, Sweden and United States.

Not totally clear yet if today also includes confirming Olympic participation, but that is on track."
