NHL plans to open 2008-09 season with games in Prague, Stockholm
The NHL is set to open next season with two games in Europe, a source has told The Canadian Press.
The 2008-'09 season will begin with the
Ottawa Senators playing the
Pittsburgh Penguins twice in Stockholm and
New York Rangers facing the
Tampa Bay Lightning in two games in Prague.
Those games will be played before the NHL season begins in North America, just as Los Angeles and Anaheim did this season in London.
All four teams are expected to play pre-season games in Europe as well.
