Title: Re: NHL Winter Classic Post by: bcharlton on January 03, 2012, 11:50:37 am Saw the game and commercial. Have been a travel hockey and High School varsity coach for almost 20 years. Great game.
Brian Title: Re: NHL Winter Classic Post by: Slapshot42 on January 03, 2012, 12:29:13 pm Beer league I can relate. If you need any gear let me know I have a ton. We are lucky here to have the the Tri City Americans which our part of the Western Hockey league. Right now they are the 2nd best team in the CHL; ( www.whl.ca )
In the past we have had Stu Barnes, Scott Gomez, and reccently Carey Price. A great game glad to see other SMC members in the game.

Title: Re: NHL Winter Classic Post by: halehouse on January 03, 2012, 05:45:48 pm We made it to a Caps game at the end of November. The mom of a student in my class has season tix that she splits. We paid for 2 seats and she gave us the 3rd. Hockey is $$ to go see.
Title: Re: NHL Winter Classic Post by: mznb1u on January 03, 2012, 06:15:15 pm Same thing here in Hockeytown (Detroit). Anything in the lower bowl is just under $100 to a lot more! You can get nose bleeds for around $30 or $40. Always a good time to see the Red Wings though!
