Two more Vancouver Canucks players have had their names added to the COVID-19 protocols list as Jalen Chatfield and Marc Michaelis both were added Sunday.
The list now stands at 16 players, and according to TSN’s Pierre LeBrun, there’s also two taxi squad members on the list, as well as three coaches, meaning a total of 21 members of the organization are in protocols.
Chatted briefly with a couple people who are dealing with the current Covid situation with the #Canucks – it’s tough, some of these guys can’t get out of bed. “Absolute shock to the body.”
