Two members of the Pittsburgh Penguins have entered COVID-19 protocols.
Head coach Mike Sullivan said both Tristan Jarry and Jeff Carter are in protocol, with the latter testing positive for the virus.
Both players, however, are asymptomatic at this point.
Carter, 37, leads the Penguins in points scoring one goals and three assists in four games. His 19:44 average ice-time leads all Pens forwards.
Jarry, 26, has appeared in three games going 2-0-1 with a .935 save percentage and posting a 1.9 goals saved above average.
The Penguins don’t play again until Saturday when they take on the visiting Toronto Maple Leafs.
