It's been nearly 20 minutes since the period should have began while they're trying to repair a problem with the ice. Has a game ever been delayed like this before? I can't remember it taking this long before.

This could be a blessing for the Isles.

TSN had it 4-0 for Detroit and now there is no score?

They said at least 10 more minutes before restarting. What a mess

A bolt got stuck under Zamboni blade. Cut hole in ice from blue line to crease on east end.

It sounds like one of the pegs from the net wasn't removed and got dragged by the zamboni and cut a hole in the ice. Net guy, you had one job.

It's because they decided to restart the game.

A peg from one of the nets got caught in the Zambezi and created a large rut in the ice

Yup, they showed video of it. Looked like a pretty significant gash.

I'm pretty sure something like this happened at MSG about 15 years back.

Emphasis on "had"

Nah we don't need it. It is what it is.

They're gonna switch sides half way through the 3rd.

I could only imagine the uproar if someone gets hurt around that area of the ice.
