TORONTO – The NHL has announced that the World Cup of Hockey viewing party scheduled for Thursday night has been cancelled due to inclement weather.

Game 2 of the World Cup of Hockey Final between Canada and Team Europe is scheduled for 8 p.m., as Canada has the opportunity to win the World Cup.

The NHL held a World Cup of Hockey viewing party during Game 1. The photo above is from that viewing party on Tuesday night.

The weather was nice that night. It may not be by Thursday night. Which is totally why they cancelled the one for Game 2. The weather. Not the Blue Jays game that will have 45,000 people at it or the relative lack of enthusiasm locally for this event. Totes the weather.
