Also “why are you so pissy?”

 

How is that not obvious? They have 2 wins in their last 14 games…


If he wasn’t in a bad mood I would question his character. The reporter needs to do a better job of gauging the temperature. Players don’t need to be piled on in times like that.

 

For sure, read the room and the situation

Official announcement from NHL and NHLPA on COVID Protocol:

 

NEW YORK/TORONTO (Jan. 18, 2022) – Following a meeting of their respective medical groups last week, the National Hockey League Players’ Association (NHLPA) and the National Hockey League (NHL) announced today the following updates to their COVID Protocol:

 

Five-Day Isolation Period: The isolation period Protocol update issued Dec. 29 appears to be functioning well in its current form. A significant portion of Players appear to be exiting isolation after five days, with a lab-based PCR test that has a CT value >30.

 

Testing Protocol: The plan is to continue the current testing Protocol through Feb. 3. Provided positive test results continue to decline within the NHL, and pending review and agreement by Jan. 31 by the NHL’s and NHLPA’s medical experts, the Protocol will be updated as follows:

 

i. There will be no testing of Fully Vaccinated Players and Staff during the All-Star break (including for participating Players and staff), unless needed for travel or development of symptoms.

 

ii. There will be a single test upon re-entry to Club facilities post-All-Star, after which there will no longer be asymptomatic testing, or testing of Fully Vaccinated close contacts.

 

iii. Thereafter, testing will continue only on a limited “for cause” basis in Fully Vaccinated Players and Staff who develop symptoms or require testing for cross-border travel.

 

iv. The post-COVID “testing holiday” will remain at 90 days, but symptom-based testing can still be done at the team physician’s discretion. Testing for cross-border travel post-COVID will be dictated by the relevant health authority, which is currently 90 days for entry to the U.S. and 180 days for entry to Canada.

 

Enhanced Measures: The current enhanced preventive measures will remain in place in the short term. The NHLPA and NHL will meet on Jan. 31 to make recommendations for relaxation of the enhanced measures, providing rates continue to decline within the NHL.

That's likely it for LA

 

Canucks get a little help, but teams in front of them still gain ground 

We reeled in LA, Anaheim, and San Jose a little bit more. Tonight was a good result.

 

Edmonton and Calgary both have the games in hand so we’ll see where they’re at as they make up those games.

We play them both soon, Winnipeg too

 

All three teams have four games in hand on us, winning or losing any of those games will be huge 

 

It's been interesting tracking the division, but I still don't think we'll pull it off

Both LAK goalies Quick and Petersen have each had horrific games in their last outings.

 

Tonight Petersen had a .792% SV letting in 5 goals on 24 shots.


and even uglier

 

Last night Quick had a .647% SV letting in 6 goals on 17 shots.

 

LAK about to go for a slide in the standings?
