In November, the NHL announced that the Flyers will host the Penguins in a regular-season outdoor game that will be played at Lincoln Financial Field, home of the NFL's Philadelphia Eagles, on Saturday, February 23, 2019. The game will be broadcast in primetime on NBC in the United States and on Sportsnet and TVA Sports in Canada at 8 p.m. ET.
The Philadelphia Flyers and the Pittsburgh Penguins have faced each other in a total of 285 NHL regular-season games, with the Flyers holding a 105-point edge (PHI 153-92-40-346; PIT 102-146-37-241). The clubs will face off for the first time this season on Dec. 1 in Pittsburgh, their first of two meetings before the 2019 Coors Light NHL Stadium Series™. The Flyers and Penguins have met seven times in the post-season, with Philadelphia holding the lead in series victories, 4-3.
In February, the Flyers will be making their fourth appearance in a regular-season outdoor game. The Flyers will be searching for their first win in an outdoor contest, losing 2-1 in overtime to the Boston Bruins at the 2010 Bridgestone NHL Winter Classic® at Fenway Park in Boston; 3-2 against the New York Rangers at the 2012 Bridgestone NHL Winter Classic® at Citizens Bank Park in Philadelphia and most recently a 4-2 defeat at the hands of the Penguins in the 2017 Coors Light NHL Stadium Series™ at Heinz Field in Pittsburgh.
The game at Lincoln Financial Field will be the fifth outdoor matchup for the Penguins, who head into this year's game with a record of 2-2. The Penguins defeated Buffalo 2-1 in a shootout at the 2008 AMP Energy NHL Winter Classic® at Ralph Wilson Stadium in Buffalo; lost 3-1 to the Washington Capitals in the 2011 Bridgestone NHL Winter Classic®, in Pittsburgh at Heinz Field; dropped a 5-1 decision to the Chicago Blackhawks at Soldier Field in Chicago for the 2014 Coors Light NHL Stadium Series™ and defeated the Flyers 4-2 in the 2017 Coors Light NHL Stadium Series™ at Heinz Field in Pittsburgh.
The Flyers and the Penguins showcase some of the League's top talent. The Flyers feature captain Claude Giroux and forwards Sean Couturier and Jakub Voracek as well as defenseman Shayne Gostisbehere. Pittsburgh features Hart Memorial Trophy winners, Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin, as well as forward Phil Kessel and defenseman Kris Letang.
