The Tampa Bay Lightning’s home opener against the Carolina Hurricanes, originally scheduled for Saturday, has been postponed. This decision was made due to the ongoing recovery efforts in the Tampa Bay area following the impact of Hurricane Milton, as announced by the NHL on Thursday. The planned festivities were set to feature a lively pre-game party in the plaza with live musical performances and a watch party, all of which will now be rescheduled.

Season Opener Moved to Carolina

Although the date for the Hurricanes-Lightning matchup remains unconfirmed, Tampa Bay will now kick off their season on the road. They are set to face the Carolina Hurricanes on Friday. The Lightning team traveled to Raleigh earlier this week, well in advance of the storm, ensuring they could avoid its effects and prepare for their season opener.
