The US has proved completely incapable of responding to the on-going threat to public health, most teams are in the US, it would only make sense if they do.

the reason the NBA suspended the season is because a player has it and they dont want to risk spreading it further than it already has been. Unless an NHL player has it i dont see them cancelling quite yet...

Can’t lose in the first round if there’s no first round...

But seriously, this is going to suck. Was talking football with a guy the other day who used to be the exec producer for an NHL teams broadcasts...he was saying that NFL makes so much money from things like TV broadcasts, and all of the external stuff that they do, that they’d still kill it with empty stadiums...don’t think the NHL, NBA or MLB can say the same thing unfortunately.

It's a sad state of affairs when a sports league takes the coronavirus more seriously than the president of the country.

Like when he tried to ban travel from china but was blocked due to MuH rAcIsM. Its not even that bad, people freaking out about it is going to do more damage than the actual virus

This is the NHL. They will wait until a player has already been infected before doing anything. They have proven over and over again that they have no regard for player safety and I see no reason to think they will start now.

Statistically speaking, at least one player/ staff member has it already. Banning fans is a minimum league wide, the season should be more or less over though.

Before even that, taking it seriously by having testing kits ready and putting forth resources to find a vaccine would have been smarter than a ban because by the time any ban is in place, it's already spread to different parts of the world.

Whatever, I'm not continuing this talk.

Feel like the NHL will either suspend games and all team events right now for a few weeks, then come back to finish up a shortened season of say... 75ish games. Then playoffs. Keeps the players safe, and rests up for the post season.
