It's not normal to negotiate a renewal in September.
The virus finally reached the players. Four players showed positive tests after returning to Finland from the road trip to Novosibirsk, Khabarovsk and Nur-Sultan. Next week's games are postponed.
Tests done on Sunday revealed 8 more positives so that's 12 players who won't be playing on Sunday.
My understanding is that they currently have some infected staff members so not all 12 are players.
Only three lines were used against Severstal, so the whole road trip will probably get pretty nasty9 Jokerit players didn't go on the road trip, including Mikko Lehtonen and Eeli Tolvanen.
Today's roster looks like pretty much all of the players who missed last week are back, while the players who played last week are now out. I believe all of last week's players with the exception of Loov and Krejcik are now missing.
I'm guessing that means the "first group" who got covid has recovered, while the "second group" is still contagious. And nearly the entire team got it at one point or another
They're in quarantine regardless of whether they've tested positive or not, Lööv and Krejčík are exempt because they had tested positive earlier and are thought to be immune at this point.
It took me literally 10 seconds to find out that the stats do not support your thesis.Jokerit coach Marjamäki said that Jokerit has always got more penalties than other teams. He said that players who come to play for Jokerit from other KHL teams laugh about it, how can this be possible. Other teams also laugh, you got so many penalties.
I think it's a matter of questionable penalties, not straight up penalty numbers.It took me literally 10 seconds to find out that the stats do not support your thesis.
Not my thesis but Marjamäkis.It took me literally 10 seconds to find out that the stats do not support your thesis.
