I know outdoor games are looked at with little enthusiasm here for the juniors (even by me), but considering the lack of severe winter weather in Vancouver and with BC Place technically considered a closed stadium, would anyone like the idea of having a Canada-USA game there for next year?

The 2014 Heritage Classic was there and although the game itself was arguably the worst ever for "outdoor" games, the ice surface looked pretty smooth and clean.

I'm from Vancouver and I can tell you that this game didn't work at all. Really, it was the worst of both worlds. You're distant from the ice, yet it still feels like an indoor game. That semi-opening roof is pretty good in nice weather, but you do still feel like you're inside. If they have it open in winter you'll be inside, yet really cold.... and far far away from the players. This is a TERRIBLE idea.
