NHL and NHLPA Open Bidding for World Cup of Hockey 2028 – Which City Will Score the Ultimate Win?
In the intervening years, the NHL and NHLPA are expected to present events that could resemble the 4 Nations Face-Off, their successful midseason tournament held last February in Boston and Montreal.
“We couldn’t be more excited about making a reality: Olympics, World Cups, Olympics, World Cups on a regular schedule of the best hockey players in the world representing their countries,” Bettman said in February. “We know the full-blown World Cup is going to be sensational.”
There are some issues to be ironed out about World Cup of Hockey 2028, including how teams will qualify and whether Russia will be allowed to participate at all. Since the invasion of Ukraine in 2022, Russia has been banned from international play in all age categories by the International Ice Hockey Federation, a ban that has been extended through 2025-26.
