players vote today on CBA and return to play. Predictions are they both pass easily.

Honestly, at this point the issue is less whether they get enough player votes to pass, than it is how many players opt out. It won't be none, for sure.

officially deadline to opt out was Tuesday but anyone can leave at any time. You can't force someone to do a job .
I'm not saying you can. The interesting part isn't that they CAN opt out, it's who does. If a team lost a couple of key players it could seriously tilt the balance in a tight series. And all of these, bar one or two, will be tight.

That's a big loss for them. Hamonic competently chews up 20 minutes a game for them and Calgary's depth on D isn't great.

Elliotte Friedman reports that the Habs will give Max Domi and additional 7-10 days to decide if he will join the team at camp. The deadline for players to opt out is tomorrow, but I don’t know how firm that deadline is. Waddell said, with regards to Pesce’s situation, that teams can make changes to the training camp roster, but once a team enters Phase 4 players can’t be added.
