At Wrigley Field. I like the event, but just like others I don't want it to lose it's luster. Then again, once a year I don't think it will. Especially if the games are as good as last year.

Having the last game at Yankee stadium would have been better but it's still going to be neat to see the Hawks/Wings at Wrigley next season.

Wrigley?

Confirmed. I'd love for the Flyers to be involved in one of these some day. Hopefully the Blackhawks pick up where they left off this past season so it'll be a good matchup.

this is going to be the most interesting game, so far that the NHL has set up for the outdoor game. For the simple fact its going to be played at Wrigley, the structure of the field is different compared to the other venues that the NHL has picked to do this classic.
