How COVID-19 will change pro hockey’s ‘sick season’ forever | Sportsnet.ca
It’s honestly felt like screaming into the void for years about how players are humans with bodies, and sometimes those bodies don’t work so good. If the NHL can let sick players recover, as Bourne thinks they will after this, maybe soon they’ll also let injured players recover? Wild stuff.
