Yeah, I don't know how the Canucks will play Friday. Even if they're not contagious they'll feel terrible and probably have to play short-handed.
That's exactly what I'm thinking. There are simply not enough days between now and Friday to 1) test negative, 2) actually **feel** well enough to hit the ice, 3) get back to game-ready condition, and 4) get a practice (or two) in the bag.
