Far as I've found out, none of them tested positive. They'll be in "protocol" until the NHL deems them safe. (And as far as I know, there's no set protocol from the NHL, it's just whenever they feel enough time has passed that a negative test is actually negative.) Heard they (the 4) "could" be allowed to play tomorrow. But not sure when the alleged sin took place. Either way, don't think there will be a postponement unless one of them actually tests positive. Next man up! Play ball!!


We've been told for 12 months the incubation period is 7-14 days, these four day isolations the various leagues are doing are a joke. But, Buttman hates the Caps so I wouldn't be surprised to see our guys get a full two weeks off

You and Alta could probably add a couple more "9's" on to the end of that survival rate, for what amounts to the healthiest group of athletes on the planet. And you're right! They should of had an "NHL" party months ago and been done with it, player wise.

I agree wholeheartedly that the rules set out are pretty dumb.  They don't seem to make any sense at all.
I can only surmise that they are there to protect other people and not the players themselves.
Catching the virus might not mean much to strong and healthy athletes, who will probably just shrug it off after a few days.  It's all the other people they pass it on to, who maybe have to go home and look after elderly, or more vulnerable people that will suffer more.
Covid is basically a strain of flu, but it is a far more virulent and contagious strain.

What bothers me is the arrogance and complete lack off respect that these guys have shown to everybody else, from the top brass, to their own team mates who are obeying the rules, to the staff looking after the teams, to the hotel staff and all their families.
They KNOW the rules yet they seem to somehow think they are above them, or that the rules don't apply to them.

Bring this guy back
 :bad:

 and get some fucking discipline back in this team.

Grrrr Arghhh!
