The league is bringing back Frozen Frenzy, where all 32 NHL teams are playing in 16 games with staggered start times starting at 6 pm and ending at 11 pm.
This matchup marks Alex Ovechkin's 'historical' first game against Russian young star Matvei Michkov, highlighting the significance of this opening act in the NHL season.
ESPN will provide national coverage with Bob Wischusen handling play-by-play and Ray Ferraro as the color commentator, emphasizing the scale of the broadcasting effort for tonight.
Fans should be aware that the game is not on Monumental Sports Network, meaning traditional commentators Joe Beninati and Craig Laughlin will not be present for the game.
