Just also saw the Tweet by the club. It's all go.

The rumours were just that, rumours.

I’ve heard the same to do with some positive cases on the team. We’ll see though[/QUOTE

Positive cases were detected a few days ago I’m afraid.

Well, looks like the game is on. I'm also up for bringing my skates. What's the best position for someone who can't skate particularly quickly and struggles with fast turns? I reckon I could take out a few opposition players if they stay still!

Just lay on the line behind Carruth

Fourth line wing right there.

As much as I want to stay optimistic, looks like that tweet was sent via Hootsuite which is a social media scheduling platform - so it may well have been scheduled even a week ago.

Alas, nothing is confirmed unless it comes from the Devils themselves, so I look forward to seeing all your lovely faces later x

 

[Ejercito Rojas]

As long as we have 13 skaters the game will go ahead.

CHL and Mannheim also sent out tweets this morning indicating the game is on.

 

[Wannabe2]

Can we read anything into that, or is that just the rules Ejercito.???

 

[Devil94]

No European ref tonight.

It's Dean Smith and Andy Dalton

 

[Ejercito Rojas]

Just the rules.
The game will go ahead.
If we couldn’t ice 13 players we would’ve informed Mannheim before they left Germany yesterday.

 

[Ejercito Rojas]

Coach Skalde, Neil Francis, Josh Batch and Ben Davies have COVID-19 and are in quarantine.
They will play no part tonight.

 

[NathanG]

Jamie Elson and Todd to step up

 

[Gavevs88]

This is what I heard last night so it's all confirmed then

 

[Gavevs88]

Coach Skalde, Neil Francis, Josh Batch and Ben Davies have COVID-19 and are in quarantine.
They will play no part tonight.

Hopefully just a positive pcr test awaiting a proper lab test. Fingers crossed its nothing.

 

[mjh]

Hope the guys affected are doing ok.

 

[Ejercito Rojas]

I heard this on Monday so would assume lab tests have confirmed the initial results.

 

[mjh]

On another note... Wilcox house. Do we know if its available for parking?

 

[RossDaws]

Hopefully stays as a handful of isolated cases and doesn't spread further.

The sad reality of sports during COVID times

 

[Jonesy83]

Just goes to show how all over the place this upcoming season is going to be

I imagine every club will be doing announcements like this quite a lot throughout the season.

Hopefully it doesn’t get to the point where teams are depleted and games have to be cancelled etc.
