NHL Winter Classic

The puck will drop today for the NHL Winter Classic, the League's first regular season outdoor game in the United States, at 1:00 PM EST. This New Year's Day will feature the Penguins vs. Sabres. Some of the hottest young NHL stars will hit the ice including Penguins Center Sidney Crosby and Sabres Goalie Ryan Miller. The game will be played at Ralph Wilson Stadium. A very large crowd is expected at this event however the record for an outdoor NHL game should remain in tact as there's simply not enough seating available to break it. The current record is held from the Michigan/Michigan St. game.

Happy New Year!
