They're obligated by written contracts, and hockey is generally the only job they are qualified for. Breaking your contract is not a real option.

If the ice is so bad that it warrants obligatory financial responsibility on behalf of the NHL and Patriots... then yes. I would hope so.
If coach ignores her concern, and something ice related causes a terrible issue... then we have a problem.
My point is that if the ice was so bad it warrants a lawsuit, why wasn't this voiced before the game? And if it was, why aren't we talking about that?
