TSN: The NHL and the Canadian teams have been trying for months to get an exemption from the Canadian government to reduce the 14-day quarantining time according to Frank Seravalli. They are optimistic and hope to get an exemption well before the April 12th deadline.
“What teams have been willing to do on the U.S. side to avoid some of that quarantine when changing teams with players driving 16 hours between cities, or one team dropping a player off at another team’s hotel in order to keep these bubbles intact. That would be welcomed news to some GMs that are trying to make some moves and to do it without the quarantine of 14 days would be music to their ears.
