The league says 23 of 396 players checked for COVID-19 at team facilities have tested positive since voluntary Phase 2 workouts began June 8 -- a rate of just under six per cent. In that same time period, the NHL added it is aware of 12 additional positive test results.
Ten additional players were confirmed to have tested positive in the spring -- five from the Ottawa Senators, three from the Colorado Avalanche and one each from the Pittsburgh Penguins and Boston Bruins. That brings the total number of NHLers with confirmed positive tests to 45 since the schedule was suspended in mid-March.
"All players who have tested positive have been self-isolated and are following protocols," the NHL said in a statement released on Twitter.

Breaking the bubble will lead to a fine or lost draft picks and the player being removed from the playoffs. Rigorous daily testing(within the amount both cities do daily).
