Why would they have difficulty complying?

They all have nice homes in Calgary where they can isolate, and they have loads of money. It's not like paying for someone to delivery groceries to their homes is going to break the bank for any of these guys.

I'm sure the Flames would have anything they need (like exercise equipment or weights) delivered to their front doors without hesitation.

The availability of tests isn't the issue. They could get tested every day and still not test positive until day 10 -- or possibly never test positive, while still being infected and contagious. The two week window ensures that even if they are an asymptomatic carrier, they won't infect anyone else because it will have cleared their systems by the end of the two weeks.
