#BRUINS VS ISLANDERS SERIES#

We love the fact that when a fan comes in the building, first of all, they're getting an experience that they're never going to forget.

'This year in Carolina, we constantly had moments throughout the game where things were always happening. 'One of the things that we've done whether it was in Nashville (2022) or in Dallas (2020) or this past year in Carolina, it's our goal that we put together an interactive event, so every time out something is happening in the arena that kind of leans into where we're at,' Mayer said. Mayer said there will also be plenty of events off the ice to make the event special for all fans. Our goal is to bring our field to life and that stadium to life and we're very confident that when everybody gets to see it for the first time, they'll go, 'Wow.'' We're going to look at all the things that that New Jersey area has to offer and the tri-state area, frankly, because we do have four teams playing. As it always is with any of our outdoor games, it's our goal that when somebody tunes in to watch this, whether they're in the New York area, they're in Iowa, they're in California or they're overseas, they know we're playing in New Jersey. 'It's a big NFL stadium and it's our goal to just take it and bring it to life in a way that frankly, we haven't necessarily seen that much. 'Our 'wow' factor comes with how we take what is a football field or a stadium and just bring it to life in a unique and creative way,' Mayer said. No matter what time the games are played, Mayer said the event will have a New Jersey feel. Mayer said the Devils-Flyers game will likely be a night game, but it's unclear what time of day the Rangers and Islanders will play.

'There's been many iterations of what we wanted to do here, but when we started getting into the matchups, the game, the tri-state area and the great hockey that right now is being played in the New York area, we felt like, 'Wouldn't this be unique and different?' And always trying to keep the Stadium Series and all our outdoor games fresh and the ideas fresh, wouldn't it be great to go with a doubleheader?' So we also had been talking to them on and off and been interested for a long time. 'MetLife is an extremely difficult place to think about doing a Winter Classic because of the two NFL teams that are in that building, the Jets and the Giants. It's always been an interest of ours,' NHL executive vice president and chief content editor Steve Mayer said Saturday. 'We had always wanted to go back to play a game at MetLife Stadium. MetLife Stadium, home to the New York Football Giants and New York Jets of the NFL, will host its first NHL outdoor games. 17 and the Rangers will face the Islanders on Feb.
