Wants 'some snowflakes' against Avalanche in Colorado after playing outdoors in California

Anze Kopitar has played in two NHL outdoor games for the Los Angeles Kings, but each was in California, in spring-like weather.
He's hoping for something different when the Kings play the Colorado Avalanche in the 2020 Navy Federal Credit Union NHL Stadium Series game at Falcon Stadium at the United States Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs, Colorado, on Saturday (8 p.m. ET; NBC, SN360, TVAS2).
"To be completely honest with you, I'm hoping that there's going to be some snowflakes," Kopitar said. "Just something that's kind of picturesque like that.
"I mean, a few of us have been fortunate enough to play in a couple outdoor games already, but at the same time we played the outdoor games in California, in warm weather."

LA Kings Stadium Series Fan Meet Up & Fan Fest in Colorado Springs at the Atomic Cowboy was great and so was the fan turnout.Nick and Daryl were awsome.Tomorrow fan fest and festivity at the AFA starts at 1pm if you're going to the game.Stanley Cup will be their for pictures.This game will be played at 6,600 feet and highest to date for any NHL outdoor game.LA players will probably be winded during the game.Avs player were talking about the attitude was getting to them when they were practicing.
