The NHL announced plans Thursday for its public ticket sales to attend the Blue Jackets ' outdoor game March 1 against the Detroit Red Wings at Ohio Stadium.
After offering presale tickets to Blue Jackets full and partial season-ticket holders earlier this summer, the team and league will round off sales to the public at 10 a.m. Oct. 4 through Ticketmaster on a first-come, first-served basis.

Ohio State students also received an email Thursday from the school's athletic department with instructions on purchasing presale tickets to sit in a student section at the game.
An Ohio State University spokesperson confirmed one person died at Ohio Stadium the morning of Sept. 26.
"The excitement of that, obviously it's an 'outside the box' sort of thing that goes on throughout the season, so it can give you a little bit extra pep in your step and energy," said new Blue Jackets forward James van Riemsdyk , who has played in the most outdoor games of any NHL player (seven). "It's certainly a great experience to take in, but they're more memorable if you can win the game."
The league also revealed its official logo for the game, which is officially part of the 2025 Navy Federal Credit Union Stadium Series. The Blue Jackets' colors – red, white and blue – make up the primary colors for the logo, which includes three nods to OSU .
The logo for the 2025 Stadium Series game between the Blue Jackets and Red Wings.
The main design and wording are encased inside a horseshoe mirroring Ohio Stadium's original shape, the Buckeyes ' famed football helmet stripe is used in the logo, and a script "The" is included with "NHL Stadium Series" as an ode to the school's use of "The Ohio State University" as its official name.
