I don’t mean to be insensitive here, but I couldn’t help but to find this a little funny.
If you’ve been paying attention to the wildfires in Southern California, then you’re very well aware of how chaotic things are in Los Angeles and surrounding areas. In fact, things have gotten so bad that the NHL has been forced to postpone Wednesday night’s game between the Los Angeles Kings and Calgary Flames.
Yes… The Calgary Flames. (RELATED: Incredibly Insane Video Of Two Men, Dog Trapped In Home And Surrounded By Flames Is Complete Nightmare Fuel)
The fire in California, being branded the Palisades Fire, sparked up Tuesday and its rage has led to thousands of people having to be evacuated from their homes. On top of that, the blaze has also caused several closures with the local highway system. What makes this situation worse is that the Palisades Fire is only one of three wildfires that are currently racing along in Southern California. Oh, but it gets even worse: officials stated Wednesday morning that the fires are contained at 0%. Yikes.
With everything being so bad, the NHL understandably postponed the game between the Kings and Flames, which had a start time of 7:30 p.m. local time (10:30 p.m. ET),

This is some tragic stuff, sure, but can we at least have a chuckle at a Flames game getting cancelled by flames?
