Winter Classic!

[shinner]

Anyone geeked for this game today? I can't stand the Wings and no fan of the Hawks, but I'm still anxiously awaiting the drop of the puck. These outdoor games are awesome.....hopefully my team will get in one soon.

Some talk of a Penguins-Flyers game @ Penn State (100K) and also Rangers-Flyers @ Yankee Stadium.

I'd love to be at Wrigley today...atmosphere looks great!

i will be watching, im huge canes fan, but fan of hawks in western conference, and i too hate detroit..

[Hawk]

I might watch...but same as Shinner...can't care about either team! I was at the original, so the rest of these are just copy cat games to me!

[shinner]

Love it, Hawk...we're in the infancy of what could become a very great hockey tradition.

BTW - fug your juniors team

I'm a casual hockey fan and I think this a superbly smart idea.

Looks great on the big HD screen.

Smart to do it on New Years day when guys are at home in sports watching mode.

Yankee Stadium, Penn St. Maybe the Big House in Ann Arbor or Lambeau. Awesome stuff.

looked like some pretty shitty seats in there though...I like the idea of keeping it in a football stadium over a baseball stadium

didn't look any worse than in a football stadium with a 100k capacity....

what I would like to see next year......

Bruins vs. Capitals at Fenway Park. You get to put Ovechkin on a national stage in one of the best cathedrals in sports.

Doubt that will happen....no rivalry there. If they want to feature Ovechkin they're going to have to find a good rivalry. Maybe the Canes or the Flyers.

Not been paying attention....not even sure when they played. I lost control of the TV last night and worked today.

[Hawk]

big upset today...Slovaks beat the US 5-3 today.
