Just as more of the NHL’s teams have started to line up for their covid-19 vaccinations, Colorado has announced that they’ll be down a very crucial member of their lineup due to a positive diagnosis.
The NHL has officially added starting goaltender Philipp Grubauer to the covid-19 list, leaving recently-acquired backups Jonas Johansson and Devan Dubnyk (who will make his first start in the burgundy and blue) to hold down the fort until he’s re-activated. He joins defender Bowen Byram, who has been off the ice for a week already, on the team’s covid list.
