About NHL Green:
The ability to skate and play the game outdoors is a critical component of the NHL's history and culture. Major environmental challenges, such as climate change and freshwater scarcity, affect future opportunities for hockey players of all ages to take the game outside. This is why the NHL is committed to improving hockey's environmental impact - and to helping catalyze a larger movement toward a healthier planet. This month, all 31 NHL Clubs will lead a variety of sustainability initiatives in their local markets, including hosting a "Green Night" home game dedicated to environmental awareness. All NHL Clubs are members of the Green Sports Alliance, a nonprofit organization committed to promoting healthy, sustainable communities through the power of sports.
