In what has become routine, the NHL has issued another update on its COVID-19 testing within the bubble cities of Edmonton and Toronto. Just like the last several weeks, there were zero positive results among the 4,644 tests administered. All members of the remaining team’s 52-member traveling parties were tested daily between August 16-22.
The league has now administered close to 25,000 tests inside the bubble with zero positives.
With more and more teams being eliminated from postseason contention, securing the bubble should be even easier moving forward. So far the league has done an exceptional job keeping its players and staff safe and separated, though there is obviously still more work to be done.
