No, the Islanders did not go through some lengthy power play slump to necessitate the obligatory pun headline, there was just a power outage at the Prudential Center in Newark last night. Preseason game canceled*. Thursday night plans ruined for...dozens, surely.
*LHH styleguide note: I’m a believer in single-L “canceled” rather than the luxurious double-L “cancelled.” The official site and countless colourful Brits disagree.
