Hockey is a tough sport, you won't see hockey players taking games off for hangnails or blisters, hahaha, rain delays. Oh mna, what kind of a wussy sport delays games for the weath- oh.
Due to sunlight on the ice surface and in the interest of Player safety, the start time of #CentennialClassic will be delayed by 30 minutes.
