One game out of an 82 game season.

Somebody please remind me why this is a "classic" game.

It won't be played if there is strike or lockout.

It will be rescheduled for the following Winter Classic in 2014 with a double header.

Not if the NHLPA votes to scrap this corny outdoor game in the CBA.

For sure. Only the league loves the mega bucks it brings in. The players don't like $$$.

I'd rather watch the Leafs play the Red Wings in the playoffs HAHAHAHAHA

 

[Ironhead]

I have watched these games, but I do not care for them.
It is an event and I may attend.
There is going to be quite a few games attached to this event. CHL, AHL, NCAA, local Minor hockey.

Gimmick event which Leafs fans will pay outrageous prices and drive 4 hrs to sit in the cold far from the action.

Leafs - Wings at Wolverine Stadium, I'll be there.

Even though they were both shitty teams in the 80's, I remember how intense the rivalry was. The Habs and the Sens have never been able to match that atmosphere. I had a livery business at the time and remember how generous Michiganders were with their money. They know how to party and why a make an annual trip to Grand Bend in the summer instead of Wasaga. Presently times are not so good for them so in January 2013, let's give them an economic caffeine rush.

Maybe TERB should charter a bus ? lol

I fixed your post.

Highlight will be Gomez getting his 3rd goal in 2 years in a Michigan doubleheader.
