The good thing is it creates competition where you can sit guys that don't justify their ice time.

Expecting

Gio-Brodie
Hanifin-Hamonic (ugh)
Forbort-Andersson

To start with Gus getting the first sub in.
Glah, I really hope we see:

Giordano - Brodie
Hanifin - Andersson
Gustafsson - Hamonic
Forbort
Kylington
Stone
Yelesin

Andersson’s play has earned him the spot ahead of Hamonic. Andersson also elevated his play in last year’s playoffs while Hamonic fell off a cliff.

Seems unlikely. I had assumed they’d be tested immediately upon entry and while there is risk of latency of a positive test, that first immediate test seems like a no brainer. And another one a few days later. Maybe they are doing that.
They’re paid to be in peak physical condition and are risking a lot of money if they don’t follow guidelines (because if the playoffs don’t happen, HRR will be lower costing them points in escrow).

All people who travel into cities are being asked/guided to self-quarantine. I don’t expect professional athletes to go against public health guidelines.
