Coyotes at Blues GameDay Thread: Bank those points

Related Topics: St. Louis Blues

As you all well know by now, the Blues will be wearing their Reverse Retro jerseys, but that’s not the only different thing in store for tonight’s game. The NHL, dealing with a spate of players in COVID-19 protocol and postponed games (three games are postponed tonight alone), have decided to beef up their rules to mitigate some of the spread. You won’t notice the distanced dressing rooms or what time the players get to the arena, but you will notice that there isn’t any glass behind the bench. Why? Improved air flow. That coupled with the HEPA air purifier back there may help out a little bit with the virus, but it’s introducing a new issue: delay of game penalties.
