Allen, Texas - The Allen Americans of the Central Hockey League announced today that tonight's game at Wichita has been cancelled due to unsafe driving conditions in the North Texas area.
Central Hockey League Director of Operations, Bob Hoffman, said today the league will announce a makeup date in the near future.
"Due to the unsafe driving conditions in North Texas in our attempt to make it to Wichita, we felt it was best to return to Allen," said Americans Head Coach Steve Martinson. "Our biggest concern with ice still on the roadways, was for the safety of our players and staff on the bus."
