I also think that Vlad is right (posted in the other thread about Covid) in that the NHL will use those two weeks to try to make up some of the games that have been missed.
With this current outbreak, I really hope the NHL and NHLPA cancels
Olympic participation. I would hate so much to have all the leagues stars stuck in China for a month.

And like you said, it would be no picnic being in a Chinese quarantine.

I haven't looked it up.
Does the league and union have to be in agreement to keep the players home? If say the union wants them to go, do they still go?
