On the eve of the Carolina Hurricanes finally getting back to full strength, they were dealt another setback.
Yesterday, the team announced that Sebastian Aho, the team leader in all major scoring categories who had logged five goals and 12 points in his last five games, was put on the COVID protocol list alongside rookie Seth Jarvis and a member of the Canes’ training staff.
Aho missed the team’s game in Vancouver for what was initially described as a non-COVID illness. He, Jarvis, and the training staff member will quarantine in Vancouver for the time being as the rest of the team finishes the road trip in Minnesota tonight.
