The Olympic torch did not burn properly during the opening ceremony, an ice-making machine broke down as did several buses, and unseasonably mild weather caused events to be postponed.
The Kings' Justin Williams, who rang a shot off the post in the game's opening moments, tied it early in the second period, weaving his way from the mid-ice right-wing boards into the Devils' zone and beating Brodeur from the slot for his fourth goal of this postseason.
The Ice Bird looks like he might be particularly interesting, with the ability to freeze objects in levels, presumably then opening them up to destruction by other birds.
