Columbus is a strong candidate to be a hub city. And while the NHL is considering flying home teams away from their host city to negate any advantage, that seems a bit of a stretch with no fans in the crowd. “It’s gonna be hard for me, I don’t doubt it for one second. But hopefully we can make sure it’s worth something and come back with a Stanley Cup, then my wife will forgive me for leaving her with three kids all this time,” Foligno said.
“You can’t really police somebody that hard when it comes to families. I mean, that’s a priority that trumps all, I think, in a lot of cases. So, you know, if somebody’s going to tell me I can’t see my family, there’s going to be a fight at some point — in that kind of setting,” he explained. “But I could see if you’re in the same city, your family’s there, it’d be very hard not to want to see them, and I respect that because I’d probably be in the same boat. But I would assume there would be a visitation thing or something that they can be screened and tested as well, and that would have to come into play for the host cities that have families there. I mean, that’s just human. That’s just, to me, bigger than the game.
“If you want things done a certain way and you have a strong enough opinion, you gotta make sure you voice it. That’s the only way it’s gonna get heard,” Foligno said.
