Welcome back one and all. I hope everyone enjoyed some time with their loved ones. There’s been quite a bit of activity around the league during our own holiday pause so let’s get right to it:
- It won’t be news to anyone that the NHL is grappling with another major incursion of COVID as they attempt to continue the season without a full-on shutdown. In order to accommodate all of the roster shake-ups, the league announced the return of taxi squads, albeit on a temporary basis. The Taxi Squads will be in effect from December 26th until the team’s final game prior to the scheduled dates for the 2022 All-Star Break.
