DENVER — Sheer chaos late Wednesday morning turned out to be a false alarm by the late afternoon for the Blues. An NHL investigation showed that several COVID-19 tests that initially indicated positive results were in error.
That means several Blues who were not on the ice for the team's morning skate are expected to be in the lineup Wednesday against the Colorado Avalanche in Game 2 of the first-round playoff series.
"All affected players were immediately isolated and further testing was done involving collected samples," the NHL said in a statement. "Those tests have returned uniformly negative results, therefore confirming that the initial reported test results were in error.
