3 years agoNew York Islanders center Mathew Barzal will miss his first game of the season on Tuesday against Detroit because he was added to the COVID-19 list. Jean-Gabriel Pageau, who's been hot lately with three goals in four games, takes over as the first-line center. Barzal has been playing his best hockey of the season lately, putting together a six-game point streak, so it's really unfortunate that he can't play. The situation all across the league is very worrying, with over 20 players ruled out because of COVID-19 protocols in less than 48 hours.--Taavi Pailk - RotoBaller
