Why? The Winter Classic is American TV event. Can't imagine why the networks want American teams. It's not like we haven't had the Heritage Classic last year, which was awesome. Seriously, the Flames jerseys were sweet.

It's a way to market the game to Americans, and Canadians get the knickers in a twist that they aren't included. Who cares? It's a marketing push to attract casual American sports fans. The Habs mean nothing to a casual sports fan in middle America. Suck them in with New York and Chicago, then get them into the history and Canadian teams.

It's not what the game is about.

Khunt move Broseph. You know it and I know it. So if you want to fill the Big House why not CBJ vs. Red Wings? You know the answer stop raining on my parade.
