STATELINE, Nev. - Even with a storm an a few inches of snow overnight, the clouds parted just in time for the unique lakeside hockey event at Edgewood Tahoe. But the sun that appeared turned out to be too much for the ice and the Bridgestone NHL Outdoors Saturday between the Vegas Golden Knights and Colorado Avalanche will resume at 9:00 p.m. local time.
During the first period Saturday, players were falling in the center of the ice, so in the interest of Player safety, and due to poor ice conditions resulting from extreme sun, play has been suspended after one period of play. The game will resume tonight with the expectation of completing the second and third periods, and with Colorado leading Vegas 1-0. The game will be televised on NBCSN, Sportsnet and TVA Sports.
