Credit to the NHL, in that its summer bubble went off about as smoothly as could be imagined, allowing the league to complete its playoffs and award the Stanley Cup. Betting that the NHL wouldn't be able to get through anything without fucking up royally was a very chalky play, so it was a real upset when they didn't.
