Vancouver could be host to NHL games under a proposal announced by the league to resume a 24 team playoff.

NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman says the league would split its playoff format in two hub cities that would host the top 12 teams in the Eastern and Western conferences.

The hub cities have not yet been determined but Vancouver is on a shortlist that also includes Edmonton, Los Angeles, Las Vegas, Chicago and Toronto.

The league says it will make a final decision based on approval from local health officials but Bettman stresses the approval of the playoff plan doesn't guarantee the resumption of games.
