My last article was posted the day before our first game of the 2020-21 season which was, and is now underway again after an unexpected 16-day hiatus in the first month - 17 days into the season to be exact. We knew this would be an unusual season in many respects, but no one envisioned the rollercoaster ride we took or could have foreseen what was to transpire. After nine games in the first 16 days, 19 players landed on the "COVID Protocol" list, the facility/team was locked down and seven games were postponed, rescheduled, and squeezed into an already tight schedule. Needless to say, it was a huge downer after we counted the days (at least I did) to the season starting puck drop.
