Trying to start the season during a pandemic withotu a bubble is asking for a giant mess. Cancelled and postponed games. It's a lose/lose. Someone a lot smarter than myself is doing cost analysis right now on playing vs playing in bubble cities vs not playing. If they decide to play teams are going to take substantial losses. Yes, I want a season. I love hockey. I also understand the economics of it. If they lose money and the players are in a 50/50 split...are they going to pay the owners to play?
For example...if they decide to have the season...no fans...so there's a $500 mill loss are they just going to eat the player's salaries? They hate escrow now...imagine what that will lookllike.
