Report: Multiple Canadiens players have tested positive for the coronavirus

According to an article from The Athletic, the Montreal Canadiens have been informed of multiple positive COVID-19 tests.

Many of the players who were expected to be on the qualifying-round roster have now arrived in Montreal. The roster announcement is due to be released tomorrow, but this news may affect that schedule.

Earlier today it was announced that Max Domi would be waiting seven to 10 dys before joining the team as its most at-risk player, and this news could be part of that explanation. It’s unclear when the positive results were found, but players were on the ice for training as early as yesterday.
