Canucks' Hutton, Rodin showing symptoms of mumps
The Vancouver Canucks announced Sunday that another three members of the organization are showing symptoms of the mumps, with Anton Rodin, Ben Hutton, and assistant equipment manager Red Hamilton having been placed under precautionary isolation.
Nikita Tryamkin, Markus Granlund, Chris Tanev, Mike Chaput, and Troy Stecher were under quarantine as of Friday. Stecher is the lone confirmed case of the highly contagious viral disease, but has since been cleared to return to on-ice activity.
Vancouver recalled four players from Utica before Saturday's shorthanded loss to the San Jose Sharks.
It's been an incredibly trying season for Rodin, who has dressed only three times due to a lingering knee issue, and has since had another season-ending surgery.
