The playoff opener between the Boston Bruins and Carolina Hurricanes was postponed because the previous game in the same building went into a fifth overtime. Game 1 of the Boston-Caroline series will be at 11 a.m. on Wednesday instead. The Tampa Bay Lightning and Columbus Blue Jackets began their game at 3:30 p.m. EDT in Toronto’s Scotiabank Arena. They remained tied 2-2 after four overtimes more than five hours later, when the NHL announced that they would not keep Boston and Carolina waiting around any longer “due to the length of the Lightning-Blue Jackets game.“
