This Week in Centennial History

The NHL's Centennial year will include two games in Sweden. The League announced Friday that the Ottawa Senators and Colorado Avalanche, two teams with Swedish-born captains, Erik Karlsson and Gabriel Landeskog, will face off in Stockholm on Nov. 10 and 11 as part of the 2017 SAP NHL Global Series. It will be the sixth time the NHL has played regular-season games in Europe, and first since 2011.
