The NHL has approved a three-game postponement for the COVID-strapped Ottawa Senators, beginning with their Tuesday night game at New Jersey, multiple outlets reported.
The Senators currently have nine players — and an associate coach — in the league’s COVID-19 protocol.
The league also will postpone Ottawa’s home game against Nashville on Thursday, and Saturday’s contest vs. the New York Rangers, per the reports.
Ottawa is coming off a 4-0 loss to Calgary on Sunday.
The Senators played shorthanded with these nine players sidelined in the COVID protocol: forwards Austin Watson, Alex Formenton, Dylan Gambrell and Connor Brown; defensemen Nick Holden, Victor Mete, Nikita Zaitsev and Josh Brown; and goalie Matt Murray.
