Last week it was reported the Blue Jackets had ‘several’ players test positive for COVID-19. However, the latest reports were that symptoms for players were ‘mild’ and that the facility will reopen this week. So I guess that’s good news right?
#CBJ players are returning to Nationwide Arena this week after a two-week break following a COVID-19 outbreak.
Club is doing COVID tests, obviously, but also cardiac testing on players, per GM Jarmo Kekalainen, before they’re permitted to return.

#CBJ have declined to say which players were diagnosed positive or how many players were infected, except to use the word “several.”
But early indications, per spokesman, are that infected players experienced nothing more than mild symptoms.
