Because they're different sports. During the Stanley Cup playoffs, you play every other day, even if the last game had 3-4-5 overtimes. MLB regularly does doubleheaders and any regular season game could go on until there's a winner. Mention a 20 game regular season to NFL players (or try to increase to workload of pitchers) and you're a dead man.
