The NHL is emerging from an extended holiday break with taxi squads and other roster revisions, a move made to guard against additional disruptions to the season amid more players and coaches going into COVID-19 protocol Sunday.
Each team will be allowed to have a taxi squad of up to six players and to make emergency recalls from the minors if COVID-19 absences would cause anyone to play without a full lineup.
Deputy commissioner Bill Daly announced the new roster rules in a Sunday night news release.
