The National Hockey League, like every other league, is in a brutally tough spot because of COVID. The League has been answering questions from the media, players and executives about its testing and protocol structure while players continue getting sick.
With nearly 50 games already postponed because of players being placed in protocol, the league officially hit the pause button on Monday.
The final games before Christmas will be the two still on the schedule for Tuesday. Every game that was supposed to be played on Wednesday was already postponed because of COVID.
Five games that remained on the schedule for Thursday before the NHL’s holiday break have been postponed as well.
