The Sens also could have been exposed in San Jose, where they played on Saturday, 3/7. One insidious feature of this virus is the long latency between exposure and onset of symptoms. ABC News reporter Kaylee Hartung was on GMA this morning. She had covered the initial outbreak near Seattle. She didn’t feel symptoms until 5 days after she returned home. For a professional athlete at the peak of fitness, it may take longer.

For what it's worth, I've been an ECU season ticket holder for many years. The last few years have not been kind. I go to pretty much every home Saturday game. Thursday night games are not worth the hassle. I pretty much ignore college football after that. I do chores, run errands, and/or take care of business on Saturdays so I can lay out and watch Red Zone for 7 or 8 hours. Honestly, it's my most favorite thing. Screw big time college football.
Because we are not very good, ECU plays at noon because it's the only way we can be on TV. It's hot! Really HOT! I've been told the only way around that is to win and be worthy of the 3:30 game or an evening game. Bottom line: Lose and you get a lot of noon games. You get paid the smallest pot of money, but you get paid.

It's not like any NHL player was going to show up for that tourney that is pretty meaningless in the US and Canada. It's sort of like the hockey NIT
Sure ... "you've got a lot of nice, publicly funded benefits there Mr Jacobs. It would be a shame if anything happened to them."Jeremy Jacobs has finally come to the table, with not a little pressure from the Massachusetts AG.

Stubhub not refunding tickets yet for future games . I think they are claiming they are not officially cancelled yet.
It sure would be nice to see that Cotton and Filipe were signed, no?

The league has spoken. The season is not cancelled, they hope to be able to provide guidance on potentially opening up camp by about April 30, which is 45 days into the 60 day pause.

April 30th is optimistic. With NC schools shut until May 15 (for now) not sure how they can play if local schools are shut beyond May 15. Unless they play with no fans.
Following yesterday’s BOG call, there is a GM call today. Dreger says playoff scenarios, the draft and pending free agent contracts are on the agenda. Keep in mind that player contracts end on June 30, so any games that go beyond that date have to be worked out with the NHLPA.

The 102 year consecutive run of the Memorial Cup being the grand daddy of the CHL Junior hockey title in Canada is over thanks to COVID-19.
Yeah ... it started right as the Spanish Flu pandemic was waning and now it's derailed by a new pandemic. Sad.
