I'm personally working from home and have been since last week. I also travel some for work and have been grounded indefinitely, in fact I told my boss I'm not going anywhere near an airport. Honestly, whether it's an international or domestic gate, it doesn't matter because both are bring travellers who have been locked on a tightly packed plane for a period of time.
I do find it tough to be constantly surrounded by news and updates of the COVID-19 situation here and abroad.
Ordering food and basic necessities online. Kudos to the front line medical personnel and those in food service and pharmacy industries and all those in the delivery business.

Hey guys, how are you all handling the COVID-19 measures being implemented in your community? How are people reacting to them? What are you doing to keep safe and get through this challenging time?

This is an open discussion thread to talk about the impact of the NHL season currently put on hold.
To get the discussion going, here are some possible outcomes given possible NHL decisions re 2019-20 NHL season:
1) NHL pauses regular season and resumes regular play per existing matches —- RECOMMENDATION: FNHL to resume FNHL playoffs with updated calendar dates.
2) If the NHL decides to cancel the remainder of the season... RECOMMENDATION: FNHL will keep FNHL regular season results, cancel FNHL playoffs & carry over 2019-20 prize pool to 2020-21 FNHL; FNHL draft contingent on NHL holding a draft with weighted lottery to determine draft position for the 8 remaining playoff teams.
3) If NHL decides to eliminate the remainder of its regular season and begin NHL playoffs when play resumes, FNHL playoffs will be cancelled and prize pool carried over to 2020-21 season.
The points above are for discussion and not firm decisions. Please feel free to post your thoughts.
Sounds like a plan!

I also looked back at all the deadline deals I made and I have to say in hindsight, the deals definitely benefitted my team. Even the deal where I moved Monahan for Reimer, Boqvist, that netted my Canes more points then if I stood pat. Good learning experience for next season.

I had a tough time taking the loss in Round 1. We were trailing the whole week until Sunday evening when we finally took the lead and with 3 mins until we secured a victory, Donoski scores a goal and we lose the week by 1.2 points.
We played without a goalie when Bob went down Sunday before the playoffs started and of course, Reimer got knocked out the evening after we traded for him on deadline day Feb 22nd.
Then Mark Stone got knocked out along with Anisimov while Adam Boqvist got concussed, came back then got concussed again in the same week.
Nuts! But what a great start to my ownership in this league. Can't wait for more action in the coming months.

Canes take one on the chin with Bobrovsky getting injured Sunday. We have no goalies heading into Round 1.

Thank you. Feels good to have my farm team rebranded.

Carolina would like to rename our minor league team the Georgia Phoenix using the old Thrashers logo. Phoenix just seems appropriate for a farm team that's meant to generate talent for the parent club.
