Ansar Khan: Detroit Red Wings defenseman Danny DeKeyser has missed the past four games and out for 10 days in COVID protocol. He was on the ice skating.

TSN: Chris Johnston on Detroit Red Wings Tyler Bertuzzi, who is suspended without pay after testing positive for COVID, is the only unvaccinated NHL player and is subject to suspension without pay when he’s out because of it.

“In the case of Tyler Bertuzzi, that would be forfeiting a little bit more than $20,000 per day in salary. He is expected to be out at least 10 days while in COVID-19 protocol.

And this isn’t entirely new for him. He hasn’t been able to travel into Canada with the Red Wings this year and on those days that the Wings have been in Canada he’s been suspended without pay and not getting paid those days.”
