Safety concerns postpone 2nd Sound Tiger game

Friday's blizzard has now postponed two Bridgeport Sound Tigers games. Continuing cleanup downtown meant Sunday afternoon's game against Worcester is postponed indefinitely.

A ban on traffic remained in effect in the city as the Sharks' bus left Worcester Sunday morning, and parking lots around the arena remained uncleared.

"Public safety," Sound Tigers president Howard Saffan said. "There were safety concerns (in the area) surrounding the arena."

Saturday's game against Portland was also postponed. There's no makeup date yet for either game, but tickets for either game can be exchanged for seats to any other home game the rest of the season. .

The Sound Tigers play Springfield at home Tuesday night.
