First Two Binghamton Devils Games Are Postponed

Binghamton Devil fans have been waiting nearly a year for the return of hockey, but they'll have to wait a little longer.

The Devils statement posted to Twitter did not list a reason for the postponement, but the Bears' and Penguins' statements said the move was because of COVID-19 protocols affecting Binghamton Devils staff. The team is not in Binghamton and is playing the entire 2021 season in Newark, New Jersey.
