Just recieved a STH email was fairly brief just says that all the tickets in my account will remain there and as it stands will be valid on the rescheduled dates. As well as to check the flames website for further updates. That's it.

Semantics aside, with regards to COVID-19 (and in general for that matter), being underinsured means that you don't have the security in knowing if you'll get medical care if you need it.
Reagdless, I know that uninsured and underinsured are technically not the same thing. But it should be acknowledged that, in practice, they often have the same outcome.

you have a few hundred people like that in the arena mixed in with the other 19000 people...
not worth the risk.

Oh, yeah. I understand, agree with and accept it...but I'm still a bit disappointed, as I was looking forward to going.

As someone who has seen what "insured" looks like down there for typical people. It may as well be treated as "uninsured". You still have to be able to pay to do even the most basic things, sometimes significant amounts.

Well because not every team has played the same amount of games.
Points percentage makes more sense when there is an uneven number of games played.

^^it would come down to NHL rules and how they apply. I don’t see how one is more fair then the other or if that is even relevant. The year after the strike, was the lottery for Crosby really fair? You could argue that a compressed schedule leads to a poorer win percentage and that is not “fair”.

.... yes.
When they actually played, the worst teams drafted early the year before.
No teams played before the Crosby draft so they balanced a bunch of factors.

Ovi potentially misses out on a historic 9th 50 goal season and a chance at 7th all time on the list.

As a politician, community leader or business leader, you have the power and the responsibility to prevent this.
You might have fears today: What if I overreact? Will people laugh at me? Will they be angry at me? Will I look stupid? Won’t it be better to wait for others to take steps first? Will I hurt the economy too much?
But in 2–4 weeks, when the entire world is in lockdown, when the few precious days of social distancing you will have enabled will have saved lives, people won’t criticize you anymore: They will thank you for making the right decision.
Ok, let’s do this.

In this theoretical model that resembles loosely Hubei, waiting one more day creates 40% more cases! So, maybe, if the Hubei authorities had declared the lockdown on 1/22 instead of 1/23, they might have reduced the number of cases by a staggering 20k.

Alternatively they could roll back each team to 68 games.
It's never going to be fair though, when you take into consideration home and away games played, along with difficulty of opponents.
That's if there even is playoffs at all which seems unlikely right now IMO.

A that’s a small price to pay to watch Oiler fans p**s & moan about missing the playoffs and stating it as proof that the NHL is conspiring against them.

While no method might be entirely fair, winning % certainly comes closest by far.
