Perron was eligible to come off the COVID-19 protocol list on Sunday, but he didn’t practice and he is currently questionable for Monday’s game as a result. “Not that I heard of today, no,” coach Craig Berube said of Perron’s test results. “As of right now, I don’t have him in, but we still got a day, right?”
