BREAKING: Power Outage Causes NHL schedule change for tonight
Unforeseen NHL Power Outage Delays Clash Between Blue Jackets and Ducks
Hockey fans were eagerly anticipating the showdown between the Columbus Blue Jackets and the Anaheim Ducks, with a tantalizing clash between Adam Fantilli and Leo Carlsson on the horizon. However, unexpected circumstances disrupted the game's schedule.
The #NHLDucks @ #CBJ game, slated for 6:30 PM, is now postponed until 8:30 PM ET due to a power outage in downtown Columbus.
«Should the outage not be resolved by 6 PM ET, additional information will be released at that time. If the issue persists beyond 6 PM ET, the game may be canceled.
An NHL power outage prompted the delay, pushing the faceoff time to 8:30 PM. With a mere 15-minute window for resolution, expiring at 6 PM ET, the game could be canceled if the power issue persists.
With Nationwide Arena still in the dark, fans will have to wait until 7:45 PM to enter. The Blue Jackets, led by Adam Fantilli, are ready to face Lukas Dostal and the rebuilding Anaheim Ducks in what promises to be an intriguing matchup.
The Columbus Blue Jackets, under the guidance of Pascal Vincent, have posted a 3-2-0 record in their first 5 games of the season.
