Staples Twitter: Bailey, Lee, Johnston, Bellows, Pelech, Greene, Chara, Cizikas in COVID Protocol

Has anyone even reported that he was symptomatic? I only read that he tested positive.

Good point, not sure. When I saw he was in isolation in Florida, I might have made the assumption, but do not see anything either way looking back at articles. Appears he did clear COVID protocol, but not playing tonight.

Korea only does one test. If you don't show a negative from having your brain tickled, it's not a good enough test. Those others you are talking about drop down to 80% effectiveness. So when folks are talking about testing, they are talking about the one that actually does the job the best. There is nothing easy about that one.

This is not true. You can do a PCR test with a saliva sample and it is just as accurate. And regardless, a nasal swab may be uncomfortable for 15 seconds but "nothing easy about it" seems a little melodramatic.

Talk about the team and players, and the facts about protocol timelines, etc. Stop talking about the efficacy of it all. It doesn't matter. The rules are the rules for the NHL. If you want to applaud them or bitch about it, take it to Twitter.

it's boring and annoying at the same time to see that some guys can't or don't want to follow your advice

I had asked Eric this at the first game and ran into him again last night. He had told me that someone else asked via twitter so he posted this in reply before the Ranger game.. They have had two more losses since. Not saying he is a game changer and a variety of factors go into each game , but for those who want him out of the lineup, this is a big enough sample that it is not a good thing when Bailey is out of the lineup. I would throw out the games we have lost now since so many are out, but this is throughout his whole career.

I'm actually going to lock this thread since the games are postponed and we'll be having the same discussion in two separate places. Continue the conversation here: Confirmed with Link: - Games postponed through at least Nov 30
