ATLANTA - The Florida Panthers' game against Atlanta was delayed after the Thrashers had problems returning from Washington because of snow.
The Thrashers, who lost 5-2 at Washington on Friday night, took a four-hour bus ride to Richmond, Va., where they took a charter flight to Atlanta. The plane landed in Atlanta shortly before 6 p.m. for the scheduled 7 p.m. start.
The game began at 7:53 p.m.
