Not exactly. Maybe 2-3 weeks ago? Stamkos tweeted about it likely being a false positive as well so im sure it can b found

I don’t have any actual information to back this up, so keep in mind that it is just a guess. Maybe a positive rapid test puts a guy on the protocol list until he has 2-3 negative PCR tests. Rapid tests tend to have more false positives.

I thought a few weeks ago, the league switch to include rapid tests on game day.

anyone know what Covid test the NHL uses? the antibody test can yield false positives i think. the PCR test would rarely if ever yield false positives

if Farabee tested positive he most likely picked up the virus a week or so ago.

All I know is they use some form of rapid testing to get results same day. The more reliable tests like the ones the public is using takes days to get back which doesnt work well with how the NHL wants things done.

As far as I understand, everyone gets tested every day and they get the results back within hours instead of days

Jake filling in for Farabee on the top line, should see a ton of passes tonight, but not many goals.

Imho the league does owe an explanation as to how he got off the list so quickly, but absent one, I'm not going to subscribe to any conspiracies.

Boy, Scott Hartnell must down a giant orange & black mega shake before he comes to work. Jake will seamlessly fill in on the top line, Ghost will come back and play great ..and so on.

I’m hoping av will tell him to at least pass it at the goalie to force him to make a save.

It’s refreshing when I just watched hockey central which should really be called leafs central or what streets should the Leafs sc parade follow. 5 mins of highlights And comments about how great they played last Night. Show the bruins and wash highlights and you’ll see winning playoff hockey you idiots.

Hadn’t seen that. Good work enforcing the rules penguins. Why even bother asking these idiots to wear masks.

My gut feeling about this game for some reason is not good... or maybe that due to having to listen to the damn Pens announcers for this game.
