from Bruce Garrioch of the Ottawa Sun,

The indications are there wont be any exhibition games and training camps will get underway in early January.
The seven teams that didn’t participate in the Return to Play in the summer – including the Ottawa Senators, Detroit Red Wings, San Jose Sharks, Los Angeles Kings, Anaheim Ducks, New Jersey Devils and Buffalo Sabres – will be able to open camp on a voluntary basis on or around Dec. 28.
The reality is all these dates could move because this is a fluid situation because of the spread of COVID-19 throughout Canada and the United States. As a result, the league may start its season in hub cities and then allow teams to play out of their arenas later on.

added 9:55am,

Nothing finalized, however, focus in discussions related to NHL training camps has been on 10 day camps with no exhibition games. In the summer, RTP non playoff teams were hoping for a 7 day head-start to 20-21 training camps. 7 days is unlikely at this point.

Welcome to Abel to Yzerman, a Red Wing blog since 1977. No other site on the internet has better-researched, fact-laden and better prepared discussions than A2Y. Re-phrase: we do little research, find facts and stats highly overrated and claim little to no preparation. There are 19 readers of A2Y. No more, no less. All of them, except maybe one, are juvenile in nature. Reminding them of that in the comment section will only encourage them to prove that.
