NHL Insider Confirms That The Outdoor Game Has Officially Been Delayed

The NHL's much-anticipated outdoor game between the New York Rangers and the New York Islanders has hit a snag. Just moments ago, an insider revealed a significant setback for the highly anticipated event.

Outdoor games in the NHL always hinge on weather conditions to ensure optimal ice quality. Unfortunately, despite sunny skies in New Jersey, the ice at MetLife Stadium isn't up to par for the scheduled 3 PM start time.

According to insider Larry Brooks, the game will likely be pushed back to a 3:45 PM start time at the earliest.

Stay tuned for an official update from the NHL as we continue to monitor the situation closely.
