Vancouver Canucks postponing weekend games

The schedule for today's Hockey Night in Canada has been disrupted by news that the Vancouver Canucks will be postponing tonight’s game at the Roger’s Arena against the Toronto Maple Leafs.

The team’s Twitter page said the home game tomorrow, Dec. 19, against the Arizona Coyotes will also be postponed.

The National Hockey League announced today due to a number of Toronto and Vancouver players entering COVID protocol over the past two days, today's Toronto-Vancouver game and tomorrow's Arizona-Vancouver games have been postponed.
