grog Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 I think it is pretty cool, but I would have liked to see it as an annual Buffalo tradition in the way Dallas and Detroit play on Thanksgiving. The outdoor hockey game on New's Years should have been a Buffalo event. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apuszczalowski Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 Meh, I watch, but thats more to do with having Canadian Blood in me I think its something that is losing it "special" attraction and is going to get old fast Personally, I think if you are going to do it every year, keep it on New Years day and make it the All Star Game. Why does the All Star game always have to be at the mid point of the season? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WWVaBeach Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 I love it. It won't get old so long as they only do it once a year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apuszczalowski Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 were there really boos by the crowd when these little kids were representing players for the us olympic squad? I heard it for Kessel, being an ex-Bruin I guess doesn't make the fans happy? I thought I also heard it quietly for a few others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't really think its gaining momentum, its seems to me its actually going in the opposite direction. There just seemed to me like there was no hype to this game. I am on TSN's website (Canadian ESPN basically) daily and it was hardly a topic except for maybe one article about the ice making trucks making its way to Boston, and this is a website that will cover anything Hockey as its main headline. I don't remember any commercials promoting this game, it just seems like its something that is not relevent if your not already a big hockey fan. And yes i saw Dennis Leary, and he looked horrible. Maybe it was just cause I was watching in HD, but his face looked well aged to say it nicely Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
todzilla Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 Love it too, great atmosphere today, even though I hate the Bruins. How about the Caps and Rangers at the new Yankee Stadium next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PastaJoe Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 I'll be going to the outdoor AHL game on February 20, when the Syracuse Crunch host the Binghamton Senators at the NYS Fairgrounds Grandstand. They originally wanted to play at the baseball stadium, but couldn't get the funding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about the Caps and Rangers at the new Yankee Stadium next year. I was trying ta think where the game could be held next year. That would be perfect. To bad they didn't do it before they left the old stadium...That would've been something else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give it back to a Canadian team next year, and I guarantee you'll be up to your eyebrows in hype on that side of the border. (Of course, CBC and my guy Elliotte will be there either way ...)
