Just the league as a whole. This has been happening all over the league. Hardly the success they had in the bubble keeping things clean
but how is this on the league? outside the rink these guys are leading everyday lives. they have kids, some in schools, spouses/gf's who go out, they themselves i'm sure are not indoors 24/7 away rom the rink. they're on team/league time a few hours a day tops. and this thing just travels, you can take every precaution, but there doesn't seem to be any realistic 100% preventative measure. if anything i think leagues have been too strict trying to eliminate it totally. if you're traveling this much, commuting, around other people socially, its just a reality a significant amount of players will get it at some point. bottom line this isn't on the league if he had it or not. its every bit as much on players to do their part. and even if all parties act in good faith, you may still get it. without trying to get into the philosophies of what the right and wrong approach is, its probably fair to say anybody playing knows the risks, knows the probability of contraction at some point, and still want to play. given that, i think its safe to consider a lot of players aren't worried at all outside of concerns of hurting their team or family, and at least now and again making some decisions that reflect that. these are young, well paid athletes. some of them, at least some of the time, are gonna have some fun. 3 days later 8 guys are positive. or maybe its a kid bringing it home. same deal. the players weren't going to agree to a bubble. postponements and absences are just gonna be part of the deal. not on the league or the players, its just 2021. none of its how i'd approach it, but no one asked me, so this is what it is and its better than nothing...though some of these games make me question that
