Why is the league surprised at the near to mid-term effects of the pandemic? Most health experts back when the CBA was signed said we would not be relaxing social distancing measures on large crowds until a vaccine was rolled out, likely in the spring-summer of 2021.
NHL owners no doubt wanted to believe some beneficial turn of events would change that. And motivated reasoning is a powerful thing. But I don’t know how anyone can be genuinely surprised that fans won’t be allowed to gather in arenas in Jan-Feb-Mar.
