Apart from the affected parties, all other players and staff members of the team have been cleared for CHL participation by proof of negative COVID-19 test ahead of their upcoming game against HC Bolzano.
"Covid-19 Protocol Related Absences” in the CHL can be the result of a number of factors including, among others, an initial positive test which remains unconfirmed until confirmatory testing is completed; mandated isolation for symptomatic individuals; required quarantine as result of high-risk close contact; isolation based on a confirmed positive test result and/or; quarantine for travel or other reasons. The CHL will not announce additional details including the precise reason for individual cases.
