it's a beautiful thing.

i present to you the molson canadian heritage classic.

the nhl is starting to toy with the idea of playing a few games outdoors, just like when we were kids.
personnally, i think this is a fantastic idea (i don't think anyone thinks it's anything but).

they built the rink right in the middle of the commonwealth stadium field.
i heard they're expecting a 60,000-strong crowd. that's a shitload of people. nhl arenas usually have around a 20,000 capacity.

the montreal canadiens are gonna play the edmonton oilers tonight.
before the game the ex-habs are playing the ex-oilers; gretzky and lafleur included. it's gonna be big. it's a classic in the making. enjoy it.
