NHL delays start of Phase 3, training camps as negotiations with NHLPA over restart plan, CBA continue - CBSSports.com
The NHL’s return to play has hit a bump in the road. The league will delay the start of formal training camps while negotiations between the league and player’s union regarding player safety in the restart plan — as well as CBA details — continue. Phase 3, which was when Stanley Cup Playoff teams would begin their official training camps, has been moved from July 10 to at least July 13, according to reports.

I don’t think this will be the first delay, but we’ll see.
