Golden Knights’ McNabb, Avalanche’s Megna placed on COVID Protocol List

Vegas Golden Knights defenceman Brayden McNabb and Colorado Avalanche forward Jayson Megna have been placed on the NHL’s COVID Protocol List, according to Sportsnet’s Elliotte Friedman.

Vegas is set to play Game 6 against the Minnesota Wild on Wednesday, hoping to close out the series, which currently sits at 3-2 in the Golden Knights’ favour. McNabb has appeared in four of the first five games of the series, posting one point while averaging 17:25 minutes of ice-time per night.

Megna’s Avalanche are currently sitting idle after sweeping the St. Louis Blues, with the club awaiting the conclusion of the rest of the Stanley Cup Playoffs’ first-round series. Megna did not appear in any of Colorado’s first four post-season games.
