Does the Kuzy on the Covid list seem like bunk to anyone besides me? It just seems too convenient an option for coaches to not utilize, while providing a sliver of truth. My point if a player is missing team events, I can see a coach willing to assume he is a risk taking dumbass and was probably out getting covidically exposed when he should have been with the team.
Kuzy must have felt like a dumbass missing out on being with Oshie/#DatHat
Covid protocol/purgatory is for players who break the NHL Covid rules. He could have broken the rules as part of his being late, and therefore landing on the list is both justified and above board legal.
Feels both legit and related to "being late for a team function".
