The nhl is a business, they aren't counting memories and sentiment at the end of the day, they are counting cash.
They just convinced a bunch of pro hockey players to play nearly 10 percent of a full season for free. They didn't have to split their costs with the IOC and the regular season hasn't been disrupted.
This is such a massive, unqualified win for the league that I will be shocked if it isn't included in the bargaining language of the next cba.
