I’m sad man. And I know nobody gives a shit about my fantasy hockey team but I have Grubauer, Mackinnon, Mikko, Makar and Landy lol. Was literally running away with the league.

So, let’s assume that they’re without Rantanen, Dong, Byram, Calvert, LOC, and Grubs for the next one.

Landeskog - MacKinnon - Burakovsky
Saad - Kadri - Kaut
Soderberg - Jost - Nuke
LOB - Bellemare - Sherwood

Toews - Girard
Nemeth - Makar
Graves - MacDonald

Dubnyk

If players keep testing positive, won't the Thursday's game be canceled too?l

Nope. They’ll make the teams play a literal covid cup. Winner is the last to get infected.





The game will likely be canceled if there is a positive test in tomorrow’s batch.

I want a Avs Wild 1st round where Dubnyk plays every game and fights couple of Wild players. Make it epic, make the weird season even weirder

If we're still getting positive tests we have to assume Thursday gets cancelled..... If not we should just start putting more names on it so it does and we don't have to play without Rants.

I feel ya, homie. But that’s exactly why you don’t draft or carry too many players on one time. I’m actually very surprised you even managed to pull all those guys.

What's the team policy when they get covid and postponed games? Are players who haven't tested positive allowed to be around other players? If Mikko tested positive today, was he around his teammates yesterday or whenever? If so then there is a chance others might be infected and test positive in he next couple of days. Or is everyone isolated until Avs get back to practice tomorrow?

I can never understand the NHL's covid protocol. It's shit

Usually you need 2 doses of the vaccine and a few weeks after to get the maximum benefits from it. The single shot the team got wouldn't make them immune.

Did the Avs get the 1st shot or the 2nd last week? If it was only the 1st shot of the vaccine, they have about a month until they've gotten the 2nd shot and it's maximum effect

Just so inconsistent how they are doing this. If no one has been together since late last week then why are we continuing to postpone games and team activity? Why are some teams playing through it with just isolated positive players, while others are getting rolling shut downs?
