According to Renaud Lavoie of TVA Sports, Montreal's Bell Centre and Boston's TD Garden are in the mix to host the tournament next year.
The NHL's 2025 international tournament is expected to be a prelude to a larger and more consistent best-on-best schedule which will see players go to the 2026 Winter Olympics in Italy and a full-scale World Cup of Hockey in 2028.
