Penguins-Flyers 2019 Stadium Series Logo Unveiled

(PHN) — For the second time in three years, the Pittsburgh Penguins will play the Philadelphia Flyers in the Coors Light Stadium series. In Feb. 2017, the teams played at Heinz Field in Pittsburgh. On Saturday, Feb. 23, 2019, the Penguins will be the road team as they face the Flyers at Lincoln Financial Field.

Monday, the NHL unveiled the logo designed by NHL Creative Services. In a nod to the intrastate keystone state battle, the logo reflects the Pennsylvania keystone symbol. The NHL also included a depiction of the Liberty Bell embedded in the “D” of “Stadium,” as a reference to the host site, Philadelphia. The league also included the primary colors of both teams on the graphic border–Flyers orange and Penguins gold.

The game will be on network television in the United States. NBC will broadcast the Stadium Series game in the U.S., and Sportsnet and TVA Sports will broadcast the game in Canada. The league plans to drop the puck just after 8 p.m. ET.

The league has not yet announced ticket details or other events surrounding the game. Those details will be announced at a later date.

The Penguins won the first round of the Stadium series home-and-home, by beating the Flyers 4-2, on Feb. 25, 2017. Jake Guetnzel had two primary assists, and goaltender Matt Murray stopped 36 of 38 shots to earn the win.
