The NHL’s new “Stadium Series” outdoor games got underway this weekend when the Kings and Ducks faced off at a balmy Dodger Stadium on Saturday night, followed by the Rangers and Devils going head-to-head at a chilly Yankee Stadium on Sunday afternoon.

Like we’ve come to expect from the Heritage Classic and the Winter Classic before them, the first round of Stadium Series games were a unique spectacle in a very special setting that provided fans with a beautiful viewing experience and players with one of the more memorable regular season tilts they’ll ever play in.
