The next NHL outdoor game played on Canadian soil will take place at Regina’s Mosaic Stadium. NHL commissioner Gary Bettman made the “special 2019-20 event announcements” during the second intermission of Tuesday’s Winter Classic outdoor game at Notre Dame Stadium in South Bend, Ind, and Canadian fans are expected to love this one. 

The Winnipeg Jets and Calgary Flames will participate in the NHL Heritage Classic on October 26 at Mosaic Stadium in Regina, Saskatchewan. The game will be the second regular-season outdoor contest for both the Flames and Jets.

Flames captain Mark Giordano, who suited up for Calgary against the Montreal Canadiens in the 2011 matchup, said he is excited to play in another outdoor game, as reported by TSN.

"I had such a great time (in 2011) and I'm sure we will again. Playing another Canadian team in a city like Regina in Mosaic Stadium will be a great atmosphere. I am really looking forward to it."

The NHL also named Dallas as the host city for next year’s Winter Classic.
