Under normal circumstances, UConn men’s hockey coach Mike Cavanaugh would be enjoying the final days of his summer before the new season begins. In a week, his players would be making their return to campus for the semester. In two weeks, the Huskies would begin a “testing week” where everyone shows how much work they have (or haven’t) put in during the summer. After Labor Day, the team would start practice in preparation for its season opener in early October.
But now, Cavanaugh doesn’t even know when he’s going to be able to meet with his players in-person for the first time.
