The Chicago Blackhawks have been overlooked once again for an NHL outdoor game, marking the fourth consecutive year of disappointment for the once-dominant franchise.

Despite the team's recent struggles and organizational challenges, fans were hopeful that Commissioner Gary Bettman would extend a helping hand, as he has done for other struggling teams in the past. However, their hopes were dashed as news broke about the NHL's plans for the upcoming season.

Reports indicate that the NHL is set to host two Stadium Series games in February 2024 at MetLife Stadium, featuring the New Jersey Devils facing off against the Philadelphia Flyers, and the New York Islanders battling the New York Rangers on back-to-back days.

This announcement has left Blackhawks fans feeling frustrated and bewildered, questioning why their team was overlooked once again.

While the NHL's decision may come as a disappointment to Blackhawks supporters, it underscores the league's commitment to showcasing regional rivalries and generating interest in key markets. The two Stadium Series games in New Jersey and New York are expected to draw significant attention and ignite the passionate fan bases of the participating teams.

For now, Blackhawks fans will have to wait patiently for their team to have another shot at the coveted outdoor game experience.

The organization will undoubtedly continue to work towards rebuilding and regaining their prominence in the league, hoping for a future opportunity to take part in the spectacle that is an NHL outdoor game.
