Its a BS argument.
The tourney needed to be bubbled...if your original location can't do it...you find another...you don't wait or need an offer.
I don't know how the bubble would have worked, though. The sports that bubbled last year (NHL, NBA) required a certain amount of isolation time before the games and practices started. This would not have been possible with the conference championships just ending 5 days ago.
I know the basketball tournament did a bubble in Indy with a similar timing situation. The way the winter sports season has gone, I think they got really really lucky that only 1 team had an issue coming in. Now that the remaining 16 teams have been in Indy for a week and a half, the bubble concept should be helping prevent any further disturbances.
If hockey followed that plan, the bubble would only really protect the frozen four teams, not really the other 12.Can't we all just get along?
Always remember... This is just a game we're talking about here. Let's not take it all too seriously.

if the NCHC could bubble in Omaha...the NCAA could have bubbled this tourney and had contingency plans for teams if they got ill."If you leave ignorance and stupidity alone, ignorance and stupidity will think it's ok."

It will not be a legit NC or three-peat."If you leave ignorance and stupidity alone, ignorance and stupidity will think it's ok."
