It’s okay. The Wild don’t need any centers right now. I think that leaves maybe just Niko Sturm and Luke Johnson to take draws? Maybe Brad Hunt can start taking them on the PP, why not.

Rough math says that's 10% of the league has been infected or exposed to those infected (approx. 30 players x 31 teams divide by 90), so, not good!

I was cautiously optimistic after only Foligno was put on the list, but this doesn’t bode well for 5 more names to go on it. Granted, it could be 1 or 2 positive tests and 3-4 out for safety, but it escalated very quickly.

This exchange makes a bit more sense then, if the Sabres only reached out to the NHLPA regarding Sunday’s game.

I have no doubt that some players are probably behaving poorly but if you're not in a true bubble there are just so many vector points this was the inevitable conclusion. If the person you live with goes out to a grocery store or something you're in contact with so many people. And all it takes is a single player to get infected from any point...a trainer, a loved one, a stranger at a store and then they can easily spread it to the entire team.

The whole thing fuckin sucks!

Montreal will be first of the league with all players healthy as a clear favorite for the cup and only then will the NHL cancel the season.

It's what happened to the Expos, no? Lockdown instead of a lockout though.

tldr, the cold and constantly rotating players that are more or less sprinting is bad.

The Atlantic and North seem to be doing fine. Make the playoffs just between them.

Then we can get another Boston/Toronto.
