2024 25 Hockey Games Rescheduled Delayed for Weather Etc

I was wondering how a hockey game gets rescheduled for weather... oh right. Hurricane.
Yeah. For the safety of the players/coaches/fans to get to the arena and back plus keep the road cleared for the first responders.
It's pre-season, so best to not risk it.

Doesn't seem like any of the big football games (college/NFL) have to re-schedule.
 
Why are they rescheduling preseason games? I guess it's the whole fan season ticket thing but then just refund the value of that ticket. I heard the Lightning were rescheduling a preseason game and I was like that's weird.
 


While MLB home lost roof, it does not seem the damage at Amalie Arena was as bad. But, Saturday's home opener in doubt due to damage, recovery efforts in region, evacuations. NHL and Lightning likely to make decision on game today/Thursday.
 
Word is Amalie Arena took some damage. Tropicana Field (MLB Rays) lost it's entire roof.

Plus all the flooding around the area. Bolts may be road warriors for a while.
 


Tampa's "2nd" home game is Tuesday. Will depend on how things are doing for status of that game as to whether a second game gets postponed.
