Lets continue the "OMGZ my team didnt get a winter classic" discussion...

FYI, Sid has mentioned in the past that playing in just one of them is fine by him, it keeps it special and playing in more would dilute that.

Doesn't matter if Bettman is still smoking is his cock. He's still gonna be there.

I'm not mad that the Wings aren't in it again, because, I don't think they should be in it again until all others have been. Look at the list of matchups I posted in the last topic.

You're telling me that you wouldn't rather see any of those over seeing the two most promoted/televised teams and players shoved down the nations throats even more because Bettman thinks it will bring "more" fans to the sport? ****'s crazy bro.

I would rather see some of the western teams in one... Vancouver would be nice to see, or Minnesota, but I am not aware of a well known rival to the Wild.

Lou Dogg · 07-29-2010, 11:12 AM

How about Vancouver lol

you can bet that when Minnesota (not if, when) gets its winter classic though, **** is going to be crazy here. Minnesota has too big a hockey market to not give us a classic eventually...although at this rate, OV and sid will have to both retire first.

Robin van Persie · 07-29-2010, 11:42 AM

Where would Minnesota have it though?

Is Target Field big enough? I thought it was kind of small. Nice, though.

I know there's logistical problems to it, but I think they should continue to try to have them in football stadiums. They're better suited to have them than baseball stadiums and there's loads more people in there. The one in Buffalo was great.

Its dumb to have 2 teams that have no history or rivalry what so ever, they are not related in any way.

This year would have been perfect for Calgary vs. Edmonton. Hall could have been on display.

Matchups that need to happen:

Leafs vs. Montreal or Ottawa
Montreal vs. Boston
Calgary vs. Edmonton
Vancouver vs. Chicago
Isles vs. Rangers
Avs vs. Wings

and for the fun of it:

Tampa Bay vs. Buffalo

Yes.

On a side note, just drove 1.5 hrs one-way to get my skates sharpened. It needed to be done.

I think we already know the prediction for the playoffs and for the past 2 years it has come true every time.

Why is it that everytime you make a comment you have to promote yourself/your city/your team?

Drizzy Drake Rogers · 07-29-2010, 10:56 PM

Because he's a douchebag?
