NHL DELAYS FLAMES' RETURN TO PLAY

The National Hockey League announced today that, as a result of seven additional Calgary Flames Players and 10 additional staff members entering the NHL's COVID Protocol, the team's return to game play is being delayed at least through Saturday, Dec. 18. The decision was made following consultation by the NHL's, the NHLPA's and the Club's medical groups.

As an appropriate precaution, the team's training facilities will remain closed for Players until further notice. The League is in the process of reviewing and revising the Flames' regular season schedule, and will provide a further update next week.
The Flames organization has followed, and will continue to follow, all recommended guidelines aimed at protecting the health and safety of its Players, staff and community at large as set by the NHL, local, provincial and federal agencies.
