The game scheduled between the Tampa Bay Lightning and Boston Bruins for tonight at TD Garden has been postponed officially by the NHL due to unsafe conditions caused by a winter storm in the area.
The game will be made up at an as of yet undetermined date.
From Damien Cristodero of the Tampa Bay Times:
Lightning just got word tonight's game with Bruins in Boston will not be played.
— Damian Cristodero (@LightningTimes) February 9, 2013
Also via Joe Haggerty of Comcast Sportsnet:
Its official. Bruins/Lightning game postponed because "remains too hazardous for fans, security personnel & TD Garden staff to get to arena"
— Joe Haggerty (@HackswithHaggs) February 9, 2013
The announcement bails the Lightning out of a back-to-back situation, as they were scheduled to continue the ongoing road trip against the New York Rangers tomorrow night after playing the Bruins tonight.
Instead, we will likely see a much better rested and prepared Lightning squad face off against the Blueshirts tomorrow night as they try to get back in the winning column following a three-game losing streak.
The puck drops on Sunday night at 7:30 PM EST.
