The Tim Hortons NHL Heritage Classic will be returning to Edmonton's Commonwealth Stadium, home of the CFL's Edmonton Elks, marking the 20-year anniversary of hosting the first-ever NHL regular-season outdoor game: the 2003 NHL Heritage Classic, a 4-3 win for the Montreal Canadiens over the Oilers in front of 57,167 fans on Nov. 22, 2003. Including that game, there have been 37 regular-season outdoor games played to date, attended by 1,851,642 fans (an average of 52,904 per game when fans could attend; 35 of 37 games played).
The Flames-Oilers outdoor matchup will mark the seventh NHL Heritage Classic, which includes the inaugural game in Edmonton (2003), as well as games in Calgary (2011), Vancouver (2014), Winnipeg (2016), Regina (2019) and Hamilton (2022). It will be the 38th regular-season outdoor contest, and first of four such games scheduled for the 2023-24 NHL season, which includes the 2024 Discover NHL Winter Classic (Jan. 1, Vegas at Seattle) and 2024 Navy Federal Credit Union Stadium Series™ (Feb. 17, Philadelphia at New Jersey; Feb. 18, NY Rangers at NY Islanders).
