Pretty sure the wild won against Chicago and the wild were the home team...
Out of all the road teams to win any of the previous outdoor games, the only one where you can say they really were not was the Rangers when they played the Devils and Islanders at Yankee Stadium in 2014. The Rangers were the road team because of some tax rule which says all their home games must be played at Madison Square Garden. However the reality is it was almost two straight unofficial home games because why would the NHL put them in back to back outdoor games in the same season when they have not done that for any other team?Caps beat the hawks in 2015 too.
Here is a list of games OP, bolded teams are the winning teams. It is mostly away teams that win, but a few home teams have won since 2014
May be easier for the road team to just focus on winning the game. Home team likely has more commitments to media/fans and family stuff going on. Just a theory.
Randomness.

Doesn't the away team win the majority of games anyway? Like 55%?

Lol no
Can't really say if it's a phenomenom or not. Not enough data a.k.a. infamous small sample size. And we should estimate the strength of the teams too, how they were compared to each other. If there's a phenomenon, maybe away teams just have been better at hockey?
