Four additional members of the Ottawa Senators organization tested positive for COVID-19, the team announced Wednesday. All players and staff have been self-isolating since March 13, and everyone who tested positive has since recovered.

Six members of the Senators have now tested positive - five players and one staff member - reports The Athletic's Hailey Salvian, who adds that the group doesn't include TSN 1200 color analyst Gord Wilson, who confirmed last week he tested positive.

With those cases factored in, there are now seven known cases among NHL players, including two on the Colorado Avalanche.

Meanwhile, the NHL on Tuesday reportedly extended its self-quarantine measures until at least April 15.
