Due to Hurricane Milton's destructive waves sweeping through Florida, the NHL was forced to postpone a major matchup.

For those in Florida affected by Hurricane Milton, the past few days have been a nightmare. While sports may not be the most important thing to them right now, the NHL has also been impacted. The Florida Panthers and Boston Bruins game was nearly postponed recently, and it was finally necessary to do so for another game.
The Tampa Bay Lightning and Carolina Hurricanes game scheduled for October 12 in Florida has been officially postponed, according to an official NHL press release. A makeup date will be announced at a later time.
The former home of the Tampa Bay Lightning, Tropicana Field, has already sustained significant damage from Hurricane Helene. This will be the team's second postponement in as many months.

It is evident that the NHL and these two teams are prioritizing recovery efforts.
