Two Bruins-Sabres Games Postponed Due To Buffalo Players Entering COVID-19 Protocol
BOSTON (CBS) -- COVID-19 has already affected a number of teams around the NHL this season, and the Bruins will now be dealing with a change of schedule.
The Bruins' upcoming two games against Buffalo, scheduled for this upcoming Saturday and Monday, have been postponed.
That change comes as a result of two Buffalo players entering the COVID-19 protocol. The Sabres' schedule is on pause through at least Feb. 8.
The NHL "determined that more caution was warranted while the league continues to analyze test results in the coming days."
