With tests, treatments, tracing, and now vaccines on the horizon, we know a lot more than when we retreated into a bubble. I'm confident that the league will figure things out and adjust if necessary. And I'm hopeful that it sets a good example for people in everyday life.
Maxi getting COVID shows they aren't finding a safe but constructive way to work through it. How they've delayed games versus forcing teams to play shorthanded is uneven and waters down the product. They also rushed the start of the season. This is more about revenue than it is player safety and this isn't the first time in recent memory they've showed their collective asses when it comes to revenue (China/Hong Kong). It's just disappointing.
