The word has been out for a month now, but the NHL officially announced today that the Devils will take on the Rangers on Sunday, Jan. 26 at Yankee Stadium as part of the league’s Stadium Series.
The game will begin at 12:30 p.m. The Devils will serve as the home team.
The Rangers and the Islanders will also play at Yankee Stadium on Wednesday, Jan. 29. That game will begin at 7:30 p.m.
The Devils and the Islanders will be playing in outdoor games for the first time. The Rangers played in the 2012 Winter Classic vs. the Philadelphia Flyers at Citizens Bank Park.
“The innovative nature of the Stadium Series affords the opportunity to have all three NHL teams in the New York-New Jersey metropolitan area play, outdoors, at one of the most-recognized stadiums in the world,” NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman said in a statement that was part of the official announcement. “We’ll be able to create a multi-faceted, multi-day experience for our fan.”
