TAMPA – Twitter is on ‘sticks of fire’ that the Tampa Bay Lightning had to temporarily close camp due to positive testing for COVID-19 on the team.
Bob McKenzie, from TSN says, “I believe it’s three players and two staff who tested positive. I believe it’s three players and two staff who tested positive. Remaining players and staff are being tested. If no further positive tests, expectation is training facility will re-open, Phase Two will continue. If there are further positive tests, well, we will see what happens.”
It’s my understanding one NHL club has had to temporarily close its training facilities during Phase Two because multiple players and some staff have tested positive for Covid-19.
