Coronavirus Outbreak Halts Sports

"Sam Hess, Operations with Monumental Sports & Entertainment, skates alone prior Detroit Red Wings playing against the Washington Capitals at Capital One Arena on March 12, 2020 in Washington, DC. Today the NHL announced is has suspended their season due to the uncertainty of the coronavirus (COVID-19) with hopes of returning. The NHL currently joins the NBA, MLS, as well as, other sporting events and leagues around the world suspending play because of the coronavirus outbreak."

During the time of the this photo, there was a lot of unknown, and sadly there still is.

The day prior, the NBA abruptly postponed their season as the coronavirus outbreak reached the United States and the sporting world.

Other leagues, sports and event worldwide felt the ripple effect as nearly each and every one was postponed or canceled outright to insure safety to its players and fans alike.

These are extraordinary times we are living in. Scary, uncertain, tragic, with glimpses of hope. I can only hope as we all look back that this will be a time we all got through safely.
