The Latest on the effects of the coronavirus outbreak on sports around the world:___The Tampa Bay Lightning closed their facilities Thursday after five team employees tested positive for the coronavirus, a person with knowledge of the situation tells The Associated Press. The person spoke to The AP on Friday on the condition of anonymity because the NHL and the team are not announcing the closure. The NHL is also no longer announcing which teams individual players tested positive. It was not clear how many Lightning players tested positive. The closure comes some two weeks after players were allowed to return to their respective facilities to take part in voluntary on- and off-ice workouts.
