The NHL regular season continues this week with five exclusive games across ABC and ESPN+/Hulu, headlined by the 2024 Navy Federal Credit Union NHL Stadium Series, taking place February 17-18 at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey. The two-day event will feature four teams – the Philadelphia Flyers, New Jersey Devils, New York Rangers and New York Islanders – in two regular-season outdoor games.

In the first Stadium Series matchup on Saturday, the New Jersey Devils host the Philadelphia Flyers in primetime on ABC (simulcast on ESPN+) at 8 p.m. ET, as Travis Konecny leads the Metropolitan Division’s third-place Flyers in an outdoor showdown with the Devils, who aim to play themselves back into Wild Card contention with the return of Jack Hughes after missing 11 games due to injury. Sunday’s Stadium Series game features the Metropolitan Division’s first-place New York Rangers and Artemi Panarin facing off against the New York Islanders and Matthew Barzal in a rare outdoor Battle of New York at 3 p.m. ET on ABC (simulcast on ESPN+).

In addition to both outdoor games taking place in a massive NFL stadium over the weekend, Grammy Award-nominated Jonas Brothers will headline a pregame concert before the Flyers and Devils face off on Saturday and during the second intermission for the telecast. The Stadium Series will also utilize state-of-the-art technology, including aerial coverage, Skycam, on-ice skatecam and virtual graphics, while a unique “Best Seat in the House” location is being created at ice level near the glass, where rotating special guests will join throughout each day’s telecast.

Starting off the week’s games on Thursday, the Central Division’s first-place Dallas Stars and Jason Robertson take on the Nashville Predators and Filip Forsberg, who currently sit just one position outside a Wild Card spot, at 8 p.m. ET on ESPN+/Hulu.

NHL action continues on ABC Hockey Saturday with the Los Angeles Kings and Kevin Fiala visiting the Eastern Conference-leading Boston Bruins and David Pastrnak at 12:30 p.m. ET, followed by the Connor McDavid-led Edmonton Oilers taking on the Dallas Stars at 3 p.m. ET.

ESPN’s NHL weekly studio show, The Point, returns on Thursday at 5 p.m. ET on ESPN2 and ESPN+. Coverage begins live from the Stadium Series at MetLife Stadium with the ABC Hockey Saturday Pregame Show Presented by Verizon at 12 p.m. on ABC and ESPN+.
