Why is the NHL playing? Would be safer not to....right?

Hockey at any level that charges to be watched is a business...period.

Business cannot exist without revenue....so they are doing what they can. Cant sell PPV if you arent playing.

This is no different than anything else that has tried to find ways o work in an unprecedented situation.

Playing all being in a bubble has proven successful all over sports so this was actually the safest way for the Rebels to be a part of it.
