Wind or no wind, the show will go on as scheduled.

Saturday night's Stadium Series game between the Washington Capitals and the Toronto Maple Leafs at Navy-Marine Corps Memorial Stadium in Annapolis, Md., will begin at the original start time of 8 p.m. ET, the NHL confirmed in the afternoon.

There's been some concern about windy conditions there this week. Friday's practices that were originally intended to be outdoors were moved inside and to other locations, and neither team took part in a morning skate on the open-air ice surface Saturday.

Winds gusted up to 80 mph Friday, but conditions improved significantly Saturday afternoon.
