Wait Your Freaking Turn!



There is are legitimate reasons why we, as a society, are prioritizing who gets the initial doses of the vaccine first.

And, to the best of my knowledge, NHL 'constituents' are neither a vulnerable population nor frontline, essential workers.

But if any member of those two latter groups do not receive the vaccine in the timeliest manner because still scarce doses disappear due to private sales...

Well?

The backtracking (thanks Lew!) is nonsensical...If they are not going to line jump why do they need to make their 'private' purchase?

Mr. Shannon later posted:

“For clarification...

The NHL is interested in securing vaccine when and if it’s available for private purchase.

Is it at this point? — no.

The league also is adamant they would not jump the line to do so.”

Methinks a negotiation sweetener with the NHLPA leaked in embarrassing fashion.
