Cardiff Devils' Challenge Cup meeting with Dundee Stars was called off because the Scottish side are following Elite Ice Hockey League Covid-19 protocols.
The Devils the match had been postponed just an hour before the puck was due to drop.
The Stars were hoping to seal a semi-final place for the first time in their history.
They won the first leg of the quarter-final against Devils 4-2 last week.
They also beat the Devils 2-1 in the Elite League last Sunday.
"Tonight's home game against the Dundee Stars was called off at the last minute due to positive Covid tests within the Dundee Stars team," a statement on the Devils website said.
The Stars game has been rearranged for Wednesday, 19 January.
Meanwhile, Devils say they will host Sheffield Steelers rather than Nottingham Panthers on Saturday, 18 December "following confirmatory test results" in the Panthers team.
