With Snowpocalypse II: Electric Boogaloo on its way to the region, I asked the Washington Capitals’ front office how they will assess the situation’s impact on the Caps’ Friday night and Sunday matinee games. Per the Caps, any game cancellation is done in consultation with the league. A number of factors are considered, including: Are the teams already in town Are officials already in town  Are players/coaches/officials able to make it to the arena Can the arena provide enough staff for the game to open its doors That first bullet is of interest regarding Sunday’s contest: the Penguins have a game in Montreal starting at 2:00 p.m.
