Flyers-Islanders game postponed

"The Neutral Zone" Staff Report

A severe winter snowstorm rumbling through the East Coast had caused the postponement of three NHL games since Friday.

The New York Islanders also had their game against the Philadelphia Flyers scheduled for Saturday evening at Barclays Center postponed. The Flyers still held practice at the arena.

The Washington Capitals game against the Pittsburgh Penguins scheduled for Sunday afternoon at Verizon Center will have to be rescheduled, the second game the Capitals had postponed in the past two days. The Capitals were supposed to play the Anaheim Ducks on Friday in a game that was originally moved up to 5pm instead of 7pm in an attempt to possibly end the game before the weather became severe; however, the NHL announced Friday afternoon it would not be played and would need to be postponed.
