Pavel Buchnevich placed on NHL’s Covid-19 protocol list

What prize do you get when you score a goal like this to extend the Blues’ home point streak to 13 games?

Well, you wind up on the Covid-19 protocol list with a bunch of your teammates, that’s what.

It’s enough to make you wish that celebration was socially distanced.

Pavel Buchnevich joins Colton Parayko, Brayden Schenn, David Perron, and (presumably, still) Vladimir Tarasenko and Scott Perunovich on the no play list. To accommodate this loss, the Blues have recalled Dakota Joshua and assigned Alexei Toropchenko and Calle Rosen on the taxi squad.
