The NHL's bubble plan worked seamlessly in its first week.
Among the 7,013 COVID-19 tests administered from July 27-Aug. 1, there were zero positive results, the league announced Monday.
The 24 teams entered the secure zone in either Toronto or Edmonton on July 26 for the start of Phase 4. Testing has been administered daily to every person in each of the clubs' 52-member traveling parties.
Following Monday's action, every team will have played at least one game in the restart.
