The Lions de Trois-Rivières returned to action for one game last weekend after a prolonged Christmas break due schedule disruption caused by the pandemic that has been wreaking havoc on professional sports, especially in Canada.
Following the renewed measures from the Québec provincial government to try to contain a major resurgence of the coronavirus, the Lions were prepared to play some empty-arena games to honour the schedule, but first the Adirondack game in Trois-Rivières was cancelled due to positive tests on the Thunder, and then the Growlers game was postponed at the last minute due to positive tests for Newfoundland, cancelling a two-game set.
