Hopefully the Hawks have some young guys up next year so this game will be watchable. Having Celebrini, Nazar and Dach along with Bedard would make it a lot more fun.

Can I place a bet on a 4-2 STL win now?

Fun experience in 2009 but won't buy tickets for this one. The thought of not having Bobby Hull's early morning tavern tan in full effect at the game hurts too much.

 

[CallMeShaft]

League is gonna make a killing off the Bedard and Celebrini jerseys.

 

[clydesdale line]

Celebrini come on down!

 

[hockeydoug]

Good points.

The thought of STL fans crying about b2b lotto wins has me reconsidering buying tickets.

 

[Beukeboom Fan]

Afraid to read the main board thread on this. Lord, please grant me strength!

Alright, hope this is a year where the designers put some effort into the Hawks jersey rather than just the lazy alterations that a few of our outdoor designs had.

Going to be weird rooting for red and against blue at Wrigley, though.

I’d like to see something around the Chicago flag colors we’ve been seeing in the player marketing around the city lately.

Sky blue, white, red. Could be kinda cool. Something around this…

 

[IU Hawks fan]

Glad this is finally out and confirmed, have known it would be at Wrigley for months

 

[shakes the clown]

I f-ing hate hate hate the winter classic. Terrible ice everytime which leads to a substandard game. Going in person is stupid. Terrible far away seats, terrible weather. Why would anyone want to subject themselves to that garbage?

I won't even watch the outdoor games on TV cause they are such shit, but guess I'll have to now that the Hawks are in one. Waste of a good game on the schedule.

 

[TLEH]

Over the whole outdoor game thing. Its cool we are hosting it and I hope the jerseys are cool but its not for me.

 

[DisgruntledHawkFan]

It's kinda cool to experience once but I'll never sit in the snow to watch hockey again.

 

[HeisenBaez]

I was hoping for a more exciting opponent than the Blues. Just saying the name "Blues" already has me feeling the blues.

Also, remember.... we hosted the 2009 Winter Classic at Wrigley Field, and then we went on an absolute tear shortly thereafter. You know what that means, right?

2026, 2029, and 2031 Stanley Cups champs confirmed, baby! Woooooooo

I just knew once this thread was up that somebody would mention Celebrini ...But...thatvisxaskibgca litvfrlm the hockey gods again.

 

[Joemoe]

A year or two to early as far as the on ice product goes imo but this was probably talked about right when the Hawks got to draft Bedard.

That's a cool jacket

 

[chicagoskycam]

With the weather in Chicago lately, this might be a 50 degree day!

 

[CallMeShaft]

The Winter Classic game is taking place on New Year's Eve this time instead of New Year's Day.

 

[No Fun Shogun]

So then... technically a second 2024 Winter Classic.

 

[DisgruntledHawkFan]

New Year's Eve in Wrigleyville is going to be an absolute shit show.

 

[Paul Allen]

New Year's Eve in Wrigleyville is going to be an absolute shit show.

It always is

So then... technically a second 2024 Winter Classic.

Nah it's starting at 4 so it'll be 2025 in Asia
