A preview of the Winter Classic
Posted 11:56 AM ET | Comments 0
Well this should be interesting being this is my first blog on this site, but I am ready to be criticized.
The Winter Classic is obviously a long way off from today's date, but I don't see why we can't talk about it now. Considering that my twitter feed is filled with Winter Classic updates (lawlzitscasey) I think the NHL has already given it a lot of thought by now.
I know that my two of my top hated teams are facing off in this snowy and blisteringly cold match up, but it's always fun to talk about the teams that you could honestly care less about.
With that being said, I think this game is going to be the best of all the Winter Classics to date. I just honestly wish the Flyers didn't ship out half their team. Now THAT would have been a match to remember. The caliber of players and the rivalry set in to place if this had taken place last year would have been a one in a million event!
Regardless I still know that it is going to be the most physical and most hard fought of all the Winter Classics. If you think about it, besides the Blackhawks and Red Wings, this is the only other heated rivalry! It makes the game more exciting, it makes the fans react more to everything and best of all it would heat everyone in the stadium right up!
Let's just hope we get a Devils VS Rangers for a future Winter Classic. CAN YA GRANT US THAT GARY!?
