Several sports teams, including the St. Louis Blues and Auburn football, have been dealing with illness among players. Buchnevich, who was sick but is expected to play, had missed practice but returned to the ice. Auburn HC Hugh Freeze reported that all but one player had recovered from the flu, with most feeling better. Left tackle Will Campbell also missed practice due to the flu but is expected to play in the ReliaQuest Bowl. The teams are hopeful that the illness won't significantly impact their upcoming games.
Schenn, who's looking to get his offense going, hears a whistle cut short a breakaway attempt. Looked like the linesman called Buchnevich at the door as the reason for the play being offside. #stlblues
Buchnevich has had three quality shots from the slot and misses the net on each, just snapped his stick going to the bench. #stlblues
The flu bug that Hugh Freeze said #Auburn football had been battling lately is nearly gone. As of this morning, "all but one" Tiger has broken their fever, according to Freeze. He anticipates those players giving it a go against Maryland. https://t.co/gR8vGLcQMB
Left tackle Will Campbell did not practice today because he had the flu, Brian Kelly said. He stayed at LSU's hotel as a precautionary measure and is still expected to play in the ReliaQuest Bowl.
#Auburn HC Hugh Freeze: "I had a good report this morning that most everybody was feeling better." Freeze said earlier this week that the Tigers had been dealing with "a run of sickness." As it stands, all but one player has broken their fever, he says.
Auburn HC Hugh Freeze said the team got a good medical report this morning in regards to the sickness that has been going around: "The fever has broken for all but one... Most everybody was feeling better."
Hugh Freeze says all but one player has recovered from the flu for tomorrow's game. A few players had to stay back at the hotel for Wednesday's practice because of illnesses.
It was an optional practice today and not everyone was on the ice. Bannister indicated that some players are under the weather. We won’t know about their status until tonight. #stlblues
Buchnevich, who was sick yesterday and didn’t practice, was on the ice today and is expected to play. #stlblues
