2024 NAVY FEDERAL CREDIT UNION NHL STADIUM SERIES HIGHLIGHTS WEEK AHEAD

The week ahead is highlighted by the Devils hosting the Flyers and the Rangers facing the Islanders during the 2024 Navy Federal Credit Union NHL Stadium Series at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, N.J. More notes on the 40th and 41st regular-season outdoor games in NHL history as well as other national broadcasts spotlighted this week:

Saturday, Feb. 17: Kings at Bruins (12:30 p.m. ET on ABC, ESPN+, SN1, TVAS, SNP, SNO, SNE)
* David Pastrnak and the Eastern Conference-leading Bruins host Drew Doughty and the Kings during an ABC Hockey Saturday tripleheader. Pastrnak (33-42—75 in 52 GP) can become the first Boston player to reach the 80-point mark in 55 games or fewer since Adam Oates in 1993-94 (25-55—80 in 54 GP), while Doughty (152-494—646 in 1,144 GP) enters the week tied with former Bruins blueliner Al Iafrate (152-311—463 in 799 GP) on the NHL’s all-time goals list among defensemen.

Saturday, Feb. 17: Oilers at Stars (3 p.m. ET on ABC, ESPN+, SN)

* Connor McDavid (324-597—921 in 615 GP) can become the fourth-fastest player to reach the 600-assist mark in NHL history behind Wayne Gretzky (416 GP), Mario Lemieux (514 GP) and Bobby Orr (608 GP), while Joe Pavelski (468-577—1,045 in 1,302 GP) needs one goal to pass Pat LaFontaine (468-545—1,013 in 865 GP) for sole possession of fifth place on the League’s all-time list among U.S.-born players. That leaderboard is topped by longtime Stars/North Stars forward Mike Modano (561-813—1,374 in 1,499 GP), who is set to have a statue unveiled in his honor outside American Airlines Center on March 16.

Saturday, Feb. 17: Flyers at Devils (8 p.m. ET on ABC, ESPN+, SN1, TVAS-D)

* Sean Couturier and the Flyers face Jack Hughes and the Devils during the 2024 Navy Federal Credit Union NHL Stadium Series opener. There will be plenty at stake with crucial standings points on the line during both outdoor games, with Philadelphia entering the week occupying third place in the Metropolitan Division and New Jersey sitting six points back of the “playoff line” in the Eastern Conference.

Saturday, Feb. 17: Jets at Canucks (10 p.m. ET on SN, CBC, CITY)

* Connor Hellebuyck and Thatcher Demko, who were recently part of NHL.com’s projected roster for the United States at the 2025 NHL 4 Nations Face-Off, could go head-to-head when the Jets and Canucks clash on Hockey Night in Canada. Hellebuyck has a 3-2-0 edge through their five previous matchups with a 1.62 goals-against average, .947 save percentage and one shutout (Demko: 2-3-0 in 5 GP; 2.42 GAA, .919 SV%, 1 SO).

Sunday, Feb. 18: Rangers at Islanders (3 p.m. ET on ABC, ESPN+, SN, TVAS)

* Artemi Panarin and the Rangers take “The Battle of New York” outside and across the Hudson River when they face Mathew Barzal and the Islanders in the 2024 Navy Federal Credit Union NHL Stadium Series finale.
