Wonder if the long term effects worry these players?

I'm guessing it's a mixed bag. Athletes, like all other human beings, have different levels of risk tolerance. Some are willing to live with more risk than others, and there's nothing wrong with that on either side.

To piggyback on that...


#Sabres make it official: Practice resumes today at 1:15 with GM Kevyn Adams talking to the media prior. We may have a few questions.

Kevyn, what are your thoughts on Reddit and the stock market?

Doesn't have to be an "A" move...a "B" would have been fine.

How are you gonna make a move. 3/4 of your gm tandem has the covid. Adams only has like 1/8 of actual gm power...

Good post 19.

I personally am not worried about long term effects, but I'm thinking a young athlete may think twice.

Inside the NHL covid protocol decision making:

Should the Sabres start practicing again?

Adams said Ralph Krueger is symptomatic and as of right now he doesn’t have an update on what they’ll do with the coaching staff. He said they’ll see when they get closer to playing games depending on Ralph’s health and other factors.

https://twitter.com/CMDeD.../1359202669924122624?s=19

Adams also said they’ve had “honest conversations” with assistant coach Don Granato about keeping him safe and healthy with the scare he went through last year.

He said those conversations are still ongoing and will see how the next few days go.

I think they broke out the flying V at practice today, with the 6 people on the ice. Hutton got a good view, he was still taped to the net.
