Blake Price, Dave Tomlinson and Jon Abbott are going to be covering the 2021 World Junior Championship for TSN Radio across Canada. Jon Abbott says bring on the jokes: his wife Rachelle is due to give birth to their third child in early January. The world changed thanks to COVID-19 in mid-March. You do the math about how they filled the empty time when there was nothing else to do.

For the first time in six years, Abbott won’t be travelling to the site of the World Junior Championship.

Price, analyst Dave Tomlinson and producer Mike Whittingham are flying to Alberta on Tuesday, where they be quarantined in their hotel rooms for four days and tested daily for COVID-19.

He gets tested twice a week and has to follow all kinds of protocols around the set and travelling to and from his home.
