Report: NHL to host four outdoor games during 2014-15 season

As the New York Rangers and New York Islanders prepare for Wednesday's game at Yankee Stadium, the NHL is looking ahead to next season with plans for several more outdoor events.

The decision to continue the trend of multiple outdoor games stems from the fact that these events are a financial boon for the league.

In short, get used to the idea of regular season games being played outdoors more than once per season. This development does, however, fit with an earlier report suggesting there would be fewer than six outdoor games next season.
