Well, I’d argue we don’t fully know the aftermath of health effects after getting Covid. Nonetheless a much a different variant than when other hockey teams have gotten covid, nonetheless going back to play when players are still sick (via Darren Dreger) and nonetheless playing in a playoff-like setting. Injuries such as torn muscles, broken bones, ect are part of playing the game; Covid is not.
