The NHL general managers will discuss the state of the game, examine and possibly recommend new rule changes and evaluate recent rule changes at their annual March meetings which begin Monday and run through Wednesday.

The GMs will have a full general meeting Monday morning followed by group sessions designed to generate conversations and ideas that can be brought back into the main group meeting Tuesday.

Potential rule change recommendations, should there be any, would likely be announced either Tuesday or Wednesday.

"These three days of meetings always present us with an opportunity to evaluate our game and our on-ice product in a thorough and detailed way," NHL Deputy Commissioner Bill Daly said. "These are the guys [the GMs] that live the game every day and every night over an extended nine-month period. They have the pulse of what's working in the game, and what could be improved. And their insights are critical, if not essential, to all of the game-related decisions we make at the League level."
