I like to believe that the advanced medical achievements that this universe has come up with plays a big role in the health and recovery of the SHL players. You do not see players taking games off for injuries because the doctors and scientists of the world were able to create vitamins that build strength and quicken recovery times. Break a finger, that is a 2 hour heal time with today's modern medicine. I believe that we live in a universe where things are generally better for everyone. So why can't the medicine also be better? Of course there are those that believe we all live in a simulation where literally everything is fake and the health of people is of no concern. That could be true, I just have not seen the evidence of that. I have taken a red pill or two to heal a bruise or fracture from the aftermath of a hockey game. The medicine is there. The cures are there. We're all lucky enough to have access to these video game like health potions.
