Ohio To Host Their First Stadium Series Game In 2025

Hockey is one of the national sports of Canada but has always had some special ties here in the states. One of the most memorable moments in all of sports in the Miracle on Ice back in the 1980 Olympics where the US defeated the Soviet Union in Lake Placid, New York even though they were hefty underdogs. Also, 4 of the original 6 teams in the NHL are based in America.

Hockey is considered one of the big 4 sports here in America, which means they have millions of fans and make billions of dollars each year. They have millions of viewers all across the world as their players come from all over the globe. This means the NHL is tasked with staying relevant in comparison to the NBA, NFL, and MLB. One of the ways they did that was by starting the stadium series and playing games in open air/outdoor stadiums. The stadium series is finally making it's way to Ohio in 2025 and you'll never guess the opponent.
