We have another important development regarding the potential early return of Carter Hart (in particular) to the National Hockey League.

Let's recall that a few weeks ago, insider Kevin Weekes linked Hart's name to a Western team - the Edmonton Oilers - and it sparked plenty of reactions.
"Carter Hart will play in the NHL. I have no doubt at all. He will be acquitted, which sets the stage for a return."

In short, we have an update today.

Return of Carter Hart to the NHL: it won't be an immediate signing for him!

That doesn't mean Hart will never return to the NHL, but for now, as far as an immediate signing goes, we can indeed forget about that.
As reported by TVA Sports, the league is maintaining its hard line against the five former WJC players.
The National Hockey League (NHL) is maintaining its hard line against the five former World Junior Team Canada (WJC) players, who remain ineligible to return even though their case will not be appealed and they are officially not guilty.
Do you believe this is the right decision?
Let's recall that we indeed learned in the very last hours that the not-guilty verdict will not be appealed, which officially settles the case for the five players.
The one who seems to have the best chance of landing a new NHL contract appears to be Carter Hart.
