GDT: 2019 Winter Classic - Bruins vs Blackhawks at Notre Dame 1PM - NBC, SN, TVAS

[K Fleur]

Chicago was in another outdoor game

Did NBC not realize the Hawks suck now?

 

[JT Kreider]

I feel the Winter Classic should only be between Original 6 teams, they can have other outdoor games with the other 25 teams, but the Winter Classic should only be between the original 6 teams.

Nahhh. I really don't need to see the Rangers in another one of these. I would rather the Islanders get one at this point (though that is very likely to be a matchup in the next few seasons).

Colorado has to be the Stars' opponent for next year.

Why?? Isnt that whats been happening anyway? This whole overblown original 6 nonsense has to stop

The whole theme of the Winter Classic is about the origin of the game being outdoors, not about the original 6 teams. Many places all across North America played hockey outdoors before there were indoor arenas and before the NHL existed. The original 6 don't have a monopoly on the history of hockey. What nonsense to say the Winter Classic should only be original 6 teams. There is literally no basis for that.

2021 Winter Classic should be Montreal Maroons vs. Seattle Metropolitans

NHL hockey was never played outside, the only thing classic about this is................well, nothing. Not even the uniforms. Maybe take the family skating or ice fishing etc on New Years instead of watching some faux classic cash grab corporate bullshit.

 

[BrockLobster]

who cares? 77000 people just showed up at the gate.

Notre Dame seems like the perfect stadium design to have a Winter Classic.

Sightlines were surprisingly good. Better for the upper seats than the lower, where you almost lost 15-20 feet of ice behind the boards.

For as much as everybody criticizes how they're overdone, it's definitely still an experience to attend. And when you're a gate-driven league, it makes sense why they do multiple games a year.

Classy Toews with a shove on Bergeron well after the goal was scored

Guess he can’t handle his decline and Bergeron’s continued reign

 

[JerseyMike34]

So no word on the Bobby Orr situation?

He wasn't there, wasn't at the Rick Middleton Jersey Retirement.

They didn't even mention his name. Anyone know if he's alright?

 

[Bozo Nicholson]

Man, those Bruins jerseys were sick.

 

[compan]

When is the Pittsburg vs Blackhawks Winter Classic? Can’t imagine NBC hasn’t requested that.

Why so hateful?

I need a Bergy one. Absolutely love this jersey.

Larkin on his way to overtaking both.

Sorry, had to get a homer comment in there.

 

[Coach Parker]

Possible. Quite possible.

No seriously. Heard from people there and I bet it will be posted here soon enough.

 

[skyo]

Brutal giveaway by Strome.

Happened already at Soldier Field.

Happened already at Soldier Field.

Technically, that was a Stadium Series game, but there has been a PIT-CHI outdoor game.

Yeah I'm dumbfounded someone would suggest that. The Winter Classic is already kind of an "original six" circle jerk.

 

[Save By Thomas]

It had to be the biggest rat to ever lace them up.
