Lightning cancel two games due to Hurricane Ian

According to ESPN's Greg Wyshynski, two previously postponed preseason games for the Tampa Bay Lightning have now been cancelled due to Hurricane Ian.

The first of these two games was to take place on Sept. 28 versus the Carolina Hurricanes, while the second was originally scheduled for Sept. 29 against the Nashville Predators. However, as a result of Hurricane Ian, they were originally postponed for a later date, but seeing how things have played out, they have been cancelled all together.

As of now, both the Lightning's preseason games on Oct. 6 and Oct. 8 versus the Florida Panthers are expected to take place, though that could change depending how things play out in the coming days. If they do indeed get cancelled, expect an announcement to come days prior.
