Sportsnet: Ottawa Senator with COVID19 (Possibly multiple players)

[Spartachat]

Hopefully, they will be all fine. Senators have such bad luck.

 

[Tuna99]

Hoping the player comes back stronger and more like Connor Mcdavid.

 

[AchtzehnBaby]

Confirmed. ...this team is cursed.

There will be books written about this franchise.

If we're guessing who is the first Senator to get diagnosed, I'll say it was Bobby Ryan because who else could it be?

Was my first thought as well

 

[Matsens15]

We still don’t know who it is ..

 

[FormentonTheFuture]

It doesn’t matter who it is or who is the first team. There will be many players who get it

In the big scheme, no. But public perception of being first is always a downer.

The NBA has set the game plan for this. Get the player(s) on Insta/Twitter and make a quick video with an update and a PSA to follow the recommended for precautions.

Transparency is always best, even if it's not our first instinct.

 

[God Says No]

I say it's Boro.

 

[BloodRedArmy]

LeClaire, obvs.

 

[SensAreReligion]

My guess is Chris Tierney.

The boys literally had to go through infected dressing rooms to bring home 2nd overall lottery chances on that last day. What legends.

Hanks to Gibson to Melnyk to Boro

Boro is at home. Working out with his wife.

Best post of 2020

In addition, the Nets also didn’t release the names of their players who were infected.

KD confirmed himself to the Athletic.

I don’t think there is any provision in the league agreement that players have to be outed when infected during a time of quarantine. I suspect the players would argue that it’s a personal decision to release that info.

Anyways, many more to get it, and get past it.

 

[TheDebater]

I say it's Boro.

Did he have it back when he and Melnyk filmed that video?

Joking aside, this is probably stressful times for the owner, not only is his team doing bad on the hockey front, but now this virus has shut down the league and is probably costing him money.

Aside from the financial stress, Melnyk is in that "vulnerable" 60+ group and not to mention his previous health issues this has got to be tough. Now one of his players tests positive and the panic is probably setting with regards to who that player has infected and how far up the organisation it could spread.

Crazy times for sure.

Contact tracing for a professional athlete must be a motherf***er.

Just quarantine all the strippers in said city.

Contact tracing for a professional athlete must be a motherf***er.

All the more reason to release name ASAP so that fans who’ve had contact with player(s) can take appropriate actions. Absolutely shocking that Sens have yet to release name

I say it's Boro.

I heard the coronavirus made contact with Boro and the coronavirus is now in 14 day quarantine.

 

[Emery]

There’s a decent chance it’s Scott Sabourin. CBC just said a man in his 20s from Ottawa who recently travelled in the United States has been tested positive for COVID-19. I’m assuming most players are gone home and Sabourin is from Ottawa. Can’t be Borowiecki since he’s been home for weeks rehabbing from an injury. I know it’s a big assumption so not saying it is him but the description fits.

From the virus board

 

[Mark Stones Spleen]

Probably means nothing, but someone on Reddit said the rumor was Connor Brown.

 

[GCK]

It’s a player in their 20’s who was tested in Ottawa. OPH.

Covid-19 checks its closet every night for Boro
