The NHL is getting ready for a large wave of games to be cancelled due to an upcoming "Snow storm Elliott" in North America. In Canada and the United States, the storm will bring severe gusts, a lot of snow, and freezing rain.
The Sabres and Tampa Bay game is probably going to be the first one to be postponed, according to NHL insider Frank Seravalli, but there are other games that may also get moved up, like the Edmonton Oilers facing off against the Vancouver Canucks as well as the Philadelphia Flyers against the Carolina Hurricanes.
