(firmenpresse) - The [Chicago Blackhawks and the Minnesota](http://www.sportsticketbank.com/nhl-hockey/nhl-stadium-series-minnesota-wild-vs-chicago-blackhawks-tickets/in-minneapolis/tcf-bank-stadium/february-21-2016?_ga=1.11172596.1913757881.1440971548) [Wild](http://www.sportsticketbank.com/nhl-hockey/nhl-stadium-series-minnesota-wild-vs-chicago-blackhawks-tickets/in-minneapolis/tcf-bank-stadium/february-21-2016?_ga=1.11172596.1913757881.1440971548) will face off in the great outdoors as the signature event of Hockey Day in America. The outdoor game is scheduled to take place at the University of Minnesota''s TCF Bank Stadium on February 21, and is part of a full day of festivities planned across the nation to celebrate the game of hockey.
Wild general manager Chuck Fletcher is excited to be hosting an outdoor game. €œWe''ve been pursuing it for a while," he told reporters when the matchup was announced. €œIt''s a great day for the State of Hockey."
Fletcher was referring to the fact that Minnesota produces more hockey players than any other state, and supports the sport of hockey at all levels, including women''s and girls'' hockey. He went on to say that the fans deserve this game, the players are excited to play in it, and the staff is planning to put on a good show.
NHL Stadium Series ticket sales have been driven by both the novelty of outdoor hockey and by the pairing for this particular game. The Chicago Blackhawks and Minnesota Wild have faced each other in Stanley Cup Playoff games the past two years. While the Blackhawks have prevailed in both sets of matchups, they''re facing stiff competition in this year''s game.
The Chicago Blackhawks have played in four outdoor NHL games, three of them in the last three seasons. Blackhawks forward Patrick Kane told reporters that he is looking forward to the Stadium Series game. It''s like being a kid again," Kane said. €œYou''re outside playing a hockey game."
The game will be broadcast live on national television, but there''s nothing like being there live, according to many of the fans who have managed to secure [NHL Stadium Series ticket](http://www.sportsticketbank.com/nhl-hockey/nhl-stadium-series-minnesota-wild-vs-chicago-blackhawks-tickets/in-minneapolis/tcf-bank-stadium/february-21-2016?_ga=1.11172596.1913757881.1440971548)s. €œThere''s an energy and excitement that you just can''t get in your living room," one Blackhawks fan said. €œIt might snow. It will be cold. It''s all part of the fun."
Tickets to the Minnesota game are difficult to get, but there are still some seats available through third-party ticket sites like SportsTicketBank.com, including some front row stadium level seats. The inventory of NHL Stadium Series tickets is fluid, so fans should check back frequently if they don''t find the seats they want at first, said a site spokesman.
