- They largely aren't because they know they are liable at this point. There are a few cases ongoing that need to be resolved before they can state a more progressive position on this issue. They are aware of the problem, but due to legal proceedings, they can't really do anything at the moment. There is also a massive class-action suit coming that limits their ability to act, because if they admit knowledge, they are liable.

The union has, in my view, never taken its job to ensure player safety seriously enough. They've taken the wrong side of helmets, visors, skateguards, etc.
