UNDATED (AP) — The NHL now says the league is on hold until at least Tuesday, one day later than originally planned. Teams will return to practice on Sunday.

The league has been on forced hiatus since Tuesday after 10 teams were unable to formulate minimum rosters due to COVID-19 protocols. The NHL was hoping to play 14 games on Monday.

Also around the NHL:
