The change has also been reflected now when you type Maple Leafs and Bruins into a search engine the game time is listed at the newly correct 8 pm.
This decision by the NHL is one that is apparently not popular. In the short time since it was announced a whole segment of fans has taken to social media to complain.
For some fans the change seems to be an inconvenience but not the end of the world. For others, it is a dealbreaker that is leading them to tune out the game entirely on Thursday night.
