The NHL has an outdoor game on New Years Eve and not one post in a hockey forum about it. I’m sure it’s partially due to the Sabres irrelevance but we used to have threads dedicated to these games. Now, I’m not sure how many people here actually knew there was a game. The NHL destroyed a unique fun experience but forcing the fans to drink from a few hose. You love outdoor games? We’ll give you ten a season. What’s that, you don’t care anymore? Well put it at 5 o’clock on a day dominated by other sports and for good measure well throw 12 of our own games on to compete. This league has a gun permanently aimed at their foot.
