Hockey One. Hockey Two. Two outdoor NHL games at MetLife Stadium with playoff implications
Hockey is coming back to the New Jersey Meadowlands this weekend with MetLife Stadium serving as the venue for the NHL’s Stadium Series
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) — Two games in two days. A concert. Four Metropolitan Division rivals separated by about a 100-mile corridor that runs from New York to Philadelphia. Roughly 140,000 fans sitting in bone-chilling temperatures waiting to shout for a goal or great save.
Hockey is coming back to the New Jersey Meadowlands in a big way this weekend with MetLife Stadium serving as the venue for the NHL's Stadium Series.
The New Jersey Devils are scheduled to play the Philadelphia Flyers on Saturday night and the Rangers and Islanders will face off Sunday afternoon in an all-NYC contest.
While these so-called pond-hockey games has been on the league's program annually since 2008, this installment may be a little different. These games will influence the playoff hopes for all the teams with less than two months left in the regular season.
