Avalanche goalie Philipp Grubauer of Germany has remained in Denver during the NHL “pause” and says he has become an avid cyclist riding “about 100 miles per day,” according to NHL.com.
Grubauer sustained a lower-body injury Feb. 15 against the Los Angeles Kings at the Air Force Academy and was listed out indefinitely. But he was back on the ice and taking shots and days from returning to the lineup March 12 when the NHL suspended play because of the coronavirus pandemic.
“Shortly before the lockdown came I was ready to go, so it hurts even a little more,” Grubauer told NHL.
