Senators-Kraken game postponed

The NHL postponed another game, this time between the Ottawa Senators and Seattle Kraken scheduled for Jan. 6. The Senators placed several new players in the COVID protocol earlier Monday.

By postponing this game, the Senators are now off until Jan. 8, at which point they should have several players back from the protocol. This is not the first time that Ottawa has dealt with postponements. Quite the opposite, in fact, as the team has seen games rescheduled for both COVID outbreaks and attendance restrictions.

The Kraken are now off even longer. They don’t have another game scheduled until a week from now. That means they will have played just three games between Dec. 18 and Jan. 10.

There have been more than 90 postponements so far through the first half of the season.
