The Blues haven’t played in Ottawa since October of 2019, and they’re going to have to wait a while longer. Tonight’s game against the Senators had already been included in part of the NHL’s postponement slate for all cross-border travel, as was Thursday’s game against the Toronto Maple Leafs.
Other teams have begun to join the postponement fun regardless of travel status. Last night, the only game left on the schedule was a matchup between the Minnesota Wild and Dallas Stars, and there were no games schedule for Wednesday night due to the holiday break.
