Two minutes and 43 seconds before the end of regular time, the power went out in the Comets’ home arena, which could not be restored. At that time, “Penguins” hockey players were leading with the score 1:2. Until that moment, Anson did not stand out in the statistical columns.
After the power outage in the arena, fans quickly turned on the flashlight app on their phones, which created an interesting atmosphere. It took about ten minutes before the match organizers announced that it would not be possible to continue the match.
A bit of a delay here in the @UticaComets home opener as the power goes out in the @ADKBankCenter during a stoppage of play. In true Utica fashion though, the Aud faithful makes it a party immediately lighting up the place and breaking out a “U-ti-ca” chant. I love it here. pic.twitter.com/nOcuIYbnLS
