Ya, the players always want to play, hockey culture has taught them from a young age that it's manly and heroic to do so, why are teams still allowing them? Imo, we'll be looking back on this kind of crap in 20 years much the way we do now about fighting and CTE
Was Andersson playing better than Miromanov? Because that's who would have been his immediate replacement.
