Blues GM Doug Armstrong questions NHL COVID-19 testing

The St. Louis Blues have the only three players currently on the NHL’s COVID protocol absence list, including regular-season leading scorer David Perron, and general manager Doug Armstrong believes the league’s testing could be flawed.

Armstrong released the following statement Wednesday ahead of Game 2 against the Avalanche at Ball Arena:

“We have discovered discrepancies in Covid test results relating to multiple players. We have been in touch with and are working with the League to address these discrepancies with additional testing and expect to have further information later this afternoon. The League will provide a further update when we have more information.
