Why stop playing entirely? Play the games unless you cant. If there are two teams on the schedule set to play and they are covid free play it. If a team drops and you can move the schedule around to play a game do it. Why just sit home?
Rough start but don't just give up yet
Eventually there’s going to be a tipping point where the constant cancellations and postponements end up rendering the season a useless farce, if things keep going the way they are.
As it is, we have three leagues in bubbles, and a fourth league with 4 teams playing and no semblance that a “conference schedule” will even be scheduled much less played. If there even is a tournament in the spring, it’ll be according to an ad hoc selection process because the way they currently use to rank teams requires cross pollination to create meaningful comparisons between conferences. There may be teams, even with the lowered qualification threshold, don’t play enough games to make the tournament (and unfortunately for my fandom interest, Clarkson, they very well might be one of them).
There’s no reason to panic and pull the plug now, but there’s reason to be concerned that playing college hockey may not work out this year, and reason absent that to be concerned the product we get is hastily assembled, ad hoc and not very enjoyable.
