Poulin20 Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 (edited) Cant say I would be interested in watching unless the Leafs magically get better next year. Truthfully I have already grown tired of this gimmick. Edited February 9, 2012 by Poulin20 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't it be more interesting to see Detroit play a Western Conference rival?I'm sure Toronto was kvitching that they haven't been in the Winter Classic. Probably saing "we're the most popular team" blah blah blah crap. Personally, I would have liked to see Detroit play the Avs. How they miss that rivalry I'll never know.

doom88 Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 100k+ seats. Toronto travels, is close, and is also an original six team. The NHL wanted to ensure the big house is over capacity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
