Sens goalie Marcus Högberg was in Sweden a couple weeks ago. I seem to remember there being some questions about a potential exposure there.

We'll see what the Sens have to say in their release.

Season is over

It’s a Russian D-Man. Big blow to the season coming back anytime soon.

Lakers played Kevin Durant's Nets on the 10th, then Sens play Kings on the 11th

Did Durant infect any NY Islanders players at Barclay Center? Islanders were in the Saddledome day of the pause. NYI played the Canucks on the 11th. All hypothetical, but you can start tracing possibilities

Do visiting NBA and NHL teams use the same dressing room at the Staples Center?

Must be Nikita Zaitsev then, it doesn't look like there were other Russian's on the team at the time.

According to the #sens, eight of the 52 people on their road trip through California have displayed COVID-19 symptoms and been tested. There's been two positive results so far, with more test results still pending.

There are separate road locker rooms for NHL and NBA at Staples.

The Sens haven't released any identification

[Wood]

Sens haven't said themselves, but the first one was Nikita Zaitsev. I believe a Russian news source released it

[Snuffleupagus]

I have no way of confirming but I heard from a good source Anthony Duclair had a positive test.

[agulati]

It’s interesting that the team hasn’t still made it public.

They're just practicing social media distancing...

Melnyk has the arena in the right place then. Maybe this was the plan all along.
