NHL shuts down Nashville Predators, Boston Bruins through Christmas because of COVID-19 issues
https://www.espn.com/nhl/story/_/id/32896161/nhl-shuts-nashville-predators-boston-bruins-christmas-due-covid-19-issuesNashville and Boston will both be shut down through Christmas. The Predators have eight players and several coaches placed in COVID-19 protocols and were due to play Carolina on Sunday and Winnipeg on Tuesday
Additionally, the Vancouver Canucks and Toronto Maple Leafs both had their next two games postponed. Those teams were supposed to play each other Saturday, but a sixth member of the Canucks tested positive Saturday morning and the Leafs have four players in protocols. Toronto was supposed to play Seattle on Sunday, while the Canucks' game against Arizona on Sunday will be rescheduled.
On top of health and safety concerns, the NHL has had to consider repercussions of players and staff crossing the U.S.-Canada border and potentially returning positive tests while traveling. The league announced Saturday newly enhanced COVID-19 protocols that include daily testing, and anyone who comes back positive while traveling is subject to obey quarantine mandates. Understandably, players and staff have concerns about being forced to isolate away from family around the holidays.
At this point, a leaguewide shutdown would be the NHL's "last resort" if there is a sense that it cannot contain COVID-19 spread. The hope is to continue postponements on a case-by-case basis until the Christmas break begins Thursday.

I, on the other hand, would give anything if my subject were dead.
I have heard the biographers of Harry S. Truman, Catherine the Great, etc., etc., say they would give anything if their subjects were alive so they could ask them some questions. I, on the other hand, would give anything if my subject were dead.
