They should have gone with an American team unless they plan on the build up for the event being America vs Canada but that just doesnt make sense.
Much too big of a marketing event for hockey in the US to use a canadian team. This is realistically the only game out of the year that can achieve a nation-wide audience within the US and to promote hockey in general. Lost opportunity.
And yes the game will sell out and toronto fans will show up in droves.

So? It's the Winter Classic. Quite possibly (no exaggeration) a once in a lifetime event for many of those fans to see the Wings play at home (well... in Michigan) outdoors. So they don't sell out every game in a place where they play 50 times a year. That has nothing to do with the Winter Classic. They could play any team in the NHL and it would sell out in 10 minutes.
