The Boston Bruins announced on Friday that one of their players had tested positive for COVID-19 and that the unidentified player subsequently tested negative twice and remains asymptomatic.
This brings the total to 10 known positive coronavirus cases among NHL players since April as the league pushes ahead with plans to resume a season that was paused on March 12.
Bruins players returned to the team's practice facility on Wednesday as part of the NHL's Phase 2 reopening. The player did not enter the team's practice facility, Bruins general manager Don Sweeney said on a Zoom teleconference with the media after the announcement was released.
