I see there are 3 players listed as COVID Loans in Recalls and Reassignments.
Are these players going to teams overseas that need replacement players due to COVID issues?

It seems like CapFriendly just lists them as “COVID loans” to differentiate these as loans that end once the NHL resumes play, as opposed to normal loans.

And it looks like they’re only doing this for NHL players as opposed to prospects who could stay in Europe if there’s no AHL season or for whatever other reason.
