Tuesday night’s Islanders’ game against the Sabres at Nassau Coliseum has been postponed, the team announced.
An NHL source said no makeup date has been immediately set and it won’t necessarily be on Wednesday, even with the teams also scheduled to play at the Coliseum on Thursday night.
The Sabres were unable to travel from Buffalo as scheduled on Monday because of the winter storm that dumped up to 20 inches of snow on Long Island. They rescheduled their team flight for Tuesday morning but that was also cancelled.
The Islanders’ announcement indicated the NHL postponed Tuesday’s game because of the league’s COVID protocol.
