Fans should find out today if the Sabres games will be postponed again.

Last week the NHL suspended all Sabres games until February 8th.

Since then Sabres Coach Ralph Krueger has tested positive for COVID 19 and eight players have been placed on the leagues COVID protocol list.

The Sabres are scheduled to take on Washington Thursday and Saturday.

Late last week the league announced several new measures in an effort to control the spread of the virus among players.

The biggest change was ordering arenas to remove the glass partition behind the players bench in an effort to improve air flow.
