NHL Extends Recommendation For League To Self-Isolate

The NHL is "extending its recommendation for players and staff to self-isolate and stay away from team facilities during the coronavirus pandemic." NHL Deputy Commissioner Bill Daly said that the league has asked players and staff to "extend their self-quarantine 10 days beyond the original March 27 timeline to April 6 -- further pushing back the earliest that team facilities can reopen." The league over the past two days has "held conference calls" with its BOG and GMs to "inform them about and take questions regarding the current situation." There is still "no clarity on when the NHL might resume its season" (USA TODAY, 3/25).
