The fact that roughly 10% of the league has covid indicates to me that they should be getting tested. If 10% of the Canadian population had covid we would have 3 million cases right now.
IMO someone who is triple vaxxed should not have to be tested that often, it just doesn't make sense to me. I hear you on them traveling around, but IMO that is less of a risk factor than attending an indoor sporting event in the stands. Those people don't get tested.

The NHL Covid protocols have tried to implement the idea of a "corridor" while traveling instead of a bubble. They should get a little serious on that front.

Considering people are generally positive before exhibiting symptoms, self declaration is really just for show. Who really knows how many Covid cases we have right now.
