Earlier today, it was announced that Adam Gaudette’s second COVID-19 test also came back positive, confirming that the one that caused him to be pulled from practice yesterday wasn’t a false positive.
Additionally, the league PR account tweeted out that another player on the Canucks tested positive, along with a member of the club’s coaching staff.
