The NHL still seems to be in denial of the issue. At least they don’t want to admit any type of accountability like the NFL has done. I think the massive lawsuit against the NFL has the NHL worried about admitting any fault. The NFL has now removed all accountability by recognizing the issue. Players now know that there is a risk by playing and are now accountable. The league now takes measures to make sure players are as safe as possible although this is not reducing injuries.

Changes need to come with players as well. They need to admit when they are hurt and not try to keep playing. They need to put their health first.
