The game action will start at 6 p.m. ET and there will be live look-ins on various ESPN platforms running from 7 p.m. to 12 a.m. ET with analysis from ESPN personalities John Buccigross, P.K.

Fun facts about the Frozen Frenzy

Per NHL PR, there has not been a night where all 32 teams have scored a goal. This Frozen Frenzy is the fourth time all 32 teams will take the ice on the same night - so hopefully the action can produce a new NHL record, beating the current high of 30 teams scoring a goal during a busy night of games.

Last year's Frozen Frenzy saw 93 individual players score a goal. That is not the highest in one night though, as on Nov. 4, 2023 when 30 teams were in action, the scoresheet saw 95 different skaters find the back of the net. Will the year's Frozen Frenzy create a new high?!

Buckle in for a crazy, frenzy night of hockey - once again, all the action is available on ESPN platforms.
