Florida Panthers: When Will the Stadium Series Make its Way Down South?
One issue that has been anticipated by Floridians is when the NHL Stadium Series could make its way down south.
Since 2008, the NHL has expanded outdoor games a lot more than before. The events, usually nationally televised on NBC, are great for media expansion for the league and do very well in attendance.
The most recent outdoor game, February’s Stadium Series matchup between the Pittsburgh Penguins and Philadelphia Flyers at Lincoln Financial Field, home of the Philadelphia Eagles, sold over 69,000 tickets and scored 1.96 million viewers on NBC.
