This evening the NHL and Gary Bettman announced changes to the NHL schedule that will impact multiple teams including the Pittsburgh Penguins and Florida Panthers.

The NHL is starting to ramp back up toward resuming with the 4 Nations Face-Off coming to a close tomorrow after the finals between Canada and the USA.

With NHL action set to get underway again a new announcement has been made confirming that schedule changes are being finalized for games of February 27th.

According to the announcement from the NHL themselves a pair of games will have their start times altered.

Multiple Games Delayed According To New Announcement From The NHL

In a new post on X, the NHL announced that a game between the Edmonton Oilers and Florida Panthers as well as a game between the Pittsburgh Penguins and Philadephia Flyers have been pushed back.

When making the announcement the league and Gary Bettman did not give a reason as to why the games have been pushed later.

It remains to be seen why the change was made but now it looks like what was scheduled to be a prime-time game nationally televised between the Panthers and Oilers in the United States has been potentially taken off of ESPN+.

This now means that most of the world will not be able to tune into the highly anticipated rematch of the Stanley Cup Finals between the Florida Panthers and Edmonton Oilers if the game moves to regional broadcasts only.

As more information becomes available regarding this change and why the NHL and Gary Bettman made such a last-minute switch we will pass that news along to you.

For now, all attention turns back to the 4 Nations Face-Off as Canada and the United States get ready to crown a champion tomorrow night.
