from David Shoalts of the Globe and Mail,
The original premise of these games – going back to hockey’s outdoor roots – was dubious at best. How playing in a football stadium in front of 70,000 fans is going back to the days of pickup hockey on a pond is beyond me.
Yes, I will be at the outdoor game in Buffalo on Jan. 1, but only because I was ordered to attend.
And now they propose to have one of these things under the dome where the NFL’s Detroit Lions play. How in the name of Bill Spunska is that supposed to be a celebration of the game’s roots?
more & David, you are missing the point. Detroit fans just want to see a home team win at Ford Field!
