MEXICO CITY -- The game between the San Antonio Spurs and Minnesota Timberwolves was postponed Wednesday night because of smoky conditions inside the Mexico City arena. The matchup will be made up in Minnesota at a later date. The arena was evacuated about 45 minutes before the scheduled 9:30 p.m. EST tipoff when a generator malfunction outside the arena sent smoke pouring into the building, according to NBA spokeswoman Sharon Lima. Mexico City Police said in a statement there was a fire in the generator room on the fourth floor of the modern glass-clad arena that opened in 2012. "What happened was provoked by a short circuit in the room of generators," the statement said in Spanish. About 15 minutes after the scheduled start, the Spurs bus pulled away from the building. The Timberwolves bus followed soon after. While the teams were warming up for their regular-season matchup, lights went out in parts of the arena and smoke began coming out of vents in the upper deck. The court quickly became cloudy. "I thought they were practicing fireworks, Spurs TV analyst Sean Elliot said. "A lot of teams do that before introductions. But then the smoke just kept creeping and it wasnt white smoke. It was like a brown dark smoke and it started taking over the whole court. It was surprising." Fans had not yet been allowed into the arena for the NBAs first regular-season game in the country since Houston and Dallas played in Mexico City on Dec. 6, 1997, when the evacuation was ordered. The teams went to their buses, still wearing their practice gear. Spurs guard Manu Ginobili said there was a lot of smoke in their locker room. Standing outside the Timberwolves bus in shorts and practice shirt, guard Ricky Rubio had no idea what happened. "They just told us to leave," Rubio said in Spanish. Both teams were scheduled to travel home right after the game. The Spurs next host the Indiana Pacers on Saturday night. The Timberwolves, who play the Miami Heat on Saturday night, were coming off a stretch in which they played a franchise-record 18 games before Dec. 1. The postponement gives them a much-needed break. Coach Rick Adelman was unhappy that his team had to give up a home game in Minnesota. Now, the Timberwolves will likely make up the game after the return of key bench players Chase Budinger (knee) and Ronny Turiaf (elbow). Adrian Perez, marketing manager for the arena, said fans will be reimbursed. Cheap NFL Jerseys .

A day before his 21st birthday, Kuemper captured both the Four Broncos Memorial Trophy as the WHLs player of the year and the Del Wilson Trophy as the leagues top goalie.(Sports Network) - Given their current place in the Eastern Conference standings, the Montreal Canadiens werent happy with just getting one point in their last trip to the ice. The Habs try to avoid a third straight loss this evening and also snap a six- game slide to the hosting Buffalo Sabres. But theyll have to do it without the services of defenceman Hall Gill, who was traded to the Nashville Predators on Friday along with a conditional fifth round pick in 2013 for forwards Blake Geoffrion, Robert Slaney and a second round pick in 2012. Viewers in the Canadiens region can watch the game on TSN Canadiens at 7:30pm et/8:30pm at. The game is available on TSN Radio 990 in Montreal and TSN.ca/Montreal. Montreal has dropped its past two games after winning four in a row, but did pick up a point on Wednesday in a 4-3 shootout loss to Boston. The Canadiens were fortunate to even get a point after trailing by two goals in the third period, getting goals by Max Pacioretty and Erik Cole in the frame. Coles game-tying tally came with 8:48 left in the third, but the Bruins nabbed the only goal of the shootout. With the Canadiens eight points behind the Maple Leafs for the Easts eighth and final playoff spot, getting one point just wasnt enough according to Pacioretty, who has five goals in his last four games. "Im sorry to say, when we dont come out with two points at this time of the year, its so frustrating," said the forward. "We know we could have gotten two points because of the way we played in the third. We cant let games like that go because of our situation." Cole scored a goal in his third straight and game and added an assist, while Carey Price made 31 saves. Montreal will head to Buffalo with defenseman Yannick Weber in tow. Weber has missed the past four games with a lower-body injury and could return to action this evvening.dddddddddddd. The Canadiens will need all the help they can get in trying to pick up their first victory over the division-rival Sabres since Nov. 27, 2010. Montreal is 0-3-3 since that win in this series, getting outscored 9-4 in the three meetings so far this year. All three of those setbacks came in Montreal, though the Habs have also dropped six of their past nine in Buffalo. Price has been on the hook for all three losses this year despite a 1.96 goals-against average in that time, while Pacioretty had two goals and four points in the three games. Eight different players have scored in the season series for the Sabres, with Derek Roy also notching three assists. Ryan Miller has won two of the games in net for Buffalo, giving up two goals on 69 shots. Miller was slated to get last night off in Philadelphia, but a rough go of things early in the second period for backup Jhonas Enroth caused Sabres head coach Lindy Ruff to put his starter in the game. It mattered little as Buffalo was handed a third straight defeat in a 7-2 decision against the Flyers. Enroth stopped all 11 shots he faced in the first, but was tagged for three goals on seven shots in the second. Miller relieved him early in the period and ended up allowing four goals on 17 shots. Jason Pominville and Thomas Vanek scored first-period goals for the Sabres, but the Flyers countered with seven unanswered goals. "In the first I think we had control. We were doing some good things. We were generating chances, we werent giving up much," said Pominville, who has a goal in three straight and points in six in a row. Buffalo has been outscored 13-4 over its three-game slide and now sits just one point ahead of Carolina for last place in the Eastern Conference. The Hurricanes are also in action this evening. The Sabres play the first of four in a row at home. cheap jerseys wholesale jerseys from china ' ' '
