NEW YORK — A blizzard socking the eastern United States disrupted the sports schedule Saturday for a second day, forcing the postponement of two more NHL games and several college basketball games and stranding two college teams on the snow-choked Pennsylvania Turnpike.
The NHL postponed the Philadelphia Flyers’ game at the New York Islanders, which had been scheduled for Saturday night. It also postponed Sunday’s game between the Pittsburgh Penguins and Washington Capitals.
On Friday, the NBA said Boston’s game at Philadelphia, which had been scheduled for Saturday night, would be played Sunday night instead. The Utah Jazz’s game at Washington, scheduled for 6:30 p.m. Saturday, will be reset at a later date.
The Duquesne men’s basketball team team bus got stuck overnight on the Pennsylvania Turnpike in the western part of the state as traffic backed up for miles.
