I agree there is a non zero chance that players could bring the virus home if the tests are not accurate. Compare that to the risk of living at home, getting groceries, takeout occasionally, pumping gas etc and never being tested unless you display symptoms.
The positive tests you are seeing from NHL players have all occurred while living outside this "bubble". Let's compare to the positive testing rates while inside it.

True, but these players are not following social distancing rules/masking rules/isolation rules from each other, the same way Hamonic can while he is at home. The risk becomes different in such a situation.
