Why do you think he’s missed so much time? This was part of it and what I kind of assumed. It’s why Benning thought he was going to be here sooner. Regardless I’m just happy he’s back and he was able to make the decision in his own time and be comfortable with it. No one should be forced into making decisions about things like this. 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he has had 1 shot, or none, what effect does he have on fully vaxxed people? Do these protocols have any basis in fact? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one should be forced into making decisions about things like this. Seems like a big risk to bring him back into the fold before he's been poked, and I don't like the idea of having to mess around with the D pairings while we're on the road in the US. I'd have preferred we not bring him back into the fold until he was fully vaxxed and capable of playing every game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd have preferred we not bring him back into the fold until he was fully vaxxed and capable of playing every game. Who is the risk to? If he has received one shot the risk is very low that he’ll contract the virus among fully vaccinated teammates. Players around the league are still getting it fully vaxxed anyways. This doesn’t change the risk at all. I do agree about messing with the pairings though. This might hurt chemistry among the D. That’s why I hope they keep the top 4 the same and just plug Hamonic in the bottom pair with Schenn or Burroughs. Once he’s able to play all the games they can try him with Hughes again.

I bet the compromised health of his daughter likely made him paranoid and highly anxious and that this wasnt so much an anti-vax stance/belief than it was that he’s just a responsible dad. I imagine him really struggling to weigh out the personal (and heaven forbid - potential guilt) if something were to happen as a result of an associated risk of his profession. yeah yeah, he signed a contract and should have decided prior to. well, the real world isnt perfect.

I'm certainly not doctor, but if the risk is nonexistant, then why would health officials make it impossible for him to travel on the road in the US? Certainly seems like someone still thinks it's a risk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do these protocols have any basis in fact? He’s more likely to catch Covid as unvaccinated and also far more likely to spread it. Double vaccinated people can still catch Covid but they are less likely to develop severe symptoms. Several players this season have been in Covid protocol. There’s no taxi squad this season and no cap exception for Covid recalls. The league and NHLPA are intent on playing a full season given the losses accrued over the past couple of seasons. Re-scheduling games due to an outbreak would be close to impossible with the compressed schedule given the Olympics (unless they withdraw from participation). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not like there's 0 cases in the NHL. Edited November 1, 2021 by Biff Tannen 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Biff Tannen Posted November 1, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted November 1, 2021 Hammonic is over whatever it was and feels ready to play, very shortly going to be double vaccinated and the coaching team think it's worth calling him up. Maybe I'm missing something, but if my summary is right, why are people upset about this? If it's just a desperate need to hate everything Green does you're kinda undermining any serious points you might make in future. 1 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatever it was for him and his family, I don't need to know. Happy he's here, happy he's now vaccinated. Pretty good measure of the support he got from the team and management too, that was nice to hear. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certainly seems like someone still thinks it's a risk. That’s just the policy they’ve set for everyone without exemption to professional athletes. With the protocols in place and the minimal interaction with the public there’s very minimal risk. Regardless they have to abide by the rules in place.
