Dallas Stars Postpone Monday Night's Game Amid Texas Power Outages
February 16, 2021
No hockey, for now.
The Dallas Stars have postponed Monday night's game at the request of Mayor Eric Johnson.
Earlier in the day, the American Airlines Center said it would decrease power consumption so that Dallas Stars game could go on.
However, the new decision to postpone the game comes amid calls for conservation as millions of Texans are still without heat and electricity. All this as temperatures continue to plunge to near 0.
