Ten positive cases were reported from a rink in NJ where an NAHL and EHL team were having their camps (plus of course youth hockey etc.) Rink is shut down for 14 days.
That doesn't mean the teams are shut down, they just have to find an alternate surface, kids get rapid tested, life goes on.
And, the league isn't shut down because of it.
So to say that a league should shut down entirely because of one case, or 10 cases, is just hyperbole.
Actually teams with positive cases do get shut down and have been for 7-14 days depending on the scenario. Not whole leagues though to my knowledge.

You must be talking about the titans in Middletown, and they do not have that many cases. The organization was **** down for two weeks because George the owner thinks he is above law/rules, and the health department oversaw the initial cleaning of the facility after a u16 and a u18 tested positive. Department of health did an unannounced visit, and saw many kids and coaches inside without masks and not distancing so the health department shut down the facility for two weeks. It was not a choice by the organization. The state shut it down.

How are NCDC games being played in Mass with no checking/contact, player busses, jammed locker rooms with full rosters and 6 feet apart on benches, etc, etc,?

It's insane - call it a season and be done before someone gets sick and God forbid dies - every week another team having players positive - then the entire teams tests and quarantines - it's all about the $ and not the people playing.

actually I think its about making sure our kids are getting the chance to play the game they love ,instead of being locked inside playing video games, drinking mt. Dew and eating sprites. This is a weak ass virus with an over 99% recovery rate. We gonna do this with every variation of a virus forever? There is nobody stopping any parent from pulling their kid(s) if thats what they think is appropriate. Stop whining about it on here

Oh, please. Such a Karen response. Go back to your bunker. It’s a speed bump. The season can easily go until May and they can play any day, any time. This isn’t youth hockey.
“God forbid dies.” Could you be more melodramatic? How’s the mortality rate among elite athletes 16-21 testing positive look to you? How many decimals? Probably more than the average calculator.
Ask ANY kid playing junior if they want the season shut down.

Ask the kids? Great plan! Your confusing emotion with being an adult. Easy question, what is the right thing to do? What does the science say? Do the benefits outweigh the risk? I cant be the smartest one in the room, am I?
It looks like teams play 1 game, quarantine until negative tests come back 5-7 days, play 1 game, repeat..Are these teams practicing daily? Is it worth it?

What teams aren't playing? There were several local NCDC games being played this weekend.
Lets see, what NCDC teams have had cases so far:
Jr Bruins
Islanders
Boston Advantage
Pal Islanders
So they all played 1 or 2 games, been sitting or just starting to sit for 2 weeks..Do you think its over? Its just started, so 17 games are scheduled for October 9th -19th, lets see how many are played! Don't get me wrong I am praying daily that these kids all get their shot but also realistic this is going to be a dumpster fire.

No hockey in NH allowed? Now what? Or can junior hockey still play?
Nope.
The primary spread is from academy teams. Seacoast and Wolves, to be precise. But once it gets to the junior team it temds to spread if they have a team room.
Just too many hours in the rink and not enough precautions.

You know these kids are adults, right? The vast majority are 18 and over.
And, the science? The science says there is an infinitesimally larger risk from hockey being played. Not zero, but tangential to zero.
Anything else you'd like to ask before you go back to the kiddie board?
You're probably the dad looking for power skating for his 8 year old.
