Meh, I’ve never been a fan of outdoor games

Still mad about them stealing our lacrosse team's name.

 

[the_fan]

They couldn’t choose a better opponent? Games against this Utah team always suck. Just frustrating games

 

[hockeyfish]

Neat, but too bad it’s not a decade ago. The games just don’t mean much anymore.

 

[Pierce Hawthorne]

Cool I guess.

 

[the_fan]

They’re talking about this on NHL network right now with Bettman and Mammoth owner. I had no idea that Avs and Mammoth are the only teams in the NHL that haven’t had a winter classic

Please let Utah use a white base color scheme, so we can have a burgundy base.

Ya, the novelty has worn off for sure. It's still kinda neat, but I don't need the silly commentating about the ice conditions and weather, the lame bands at intermission with the fake fans jumping around, and some rather horrible uniforms for the most part. Looking at you Florida. Ill get off your lawn now.

 

[Mooserton]

Excited for the prospect of the one off jersey. They’re usually misses but they don’t have to be.

Hopefully nobody dies at this one.

The US military isn't involved so should be fine.

Please let Utah use a white base color scheme, so we can have a burgundy base.

Burgundy and white, Burgundy and tan, Quebec blue and white, Rockies type jersey with some tan would all be cool.

 

[BaconNater]

Bring back the 2020 stadium series jersey

 

[Tommy Shelby]

I can only imagine how shitty the ice is going to be

 

[UncleRisto]

Bring back the 2020 stadium series jersey

No!

 

[niwotsblessing]

Oh good, we get to play the stormin' mormons in an outdoor game.

That jersey should be locked away and never seen again like the Ark in Raiders of the Lost Ark.

Funny thing about those uniforms is that they were low key nice if you saw them from the rear. But that ridiculous A on the front was just something else.

 

[The AntiBob]

I'll be keeping an eye out for mockups

 

[Bonzai12]

Has anyone actually ever been to this stadium?

Is it as much of a turd as I imagine it will be?

Do they only serve Sprite?

 

[The AntiBob]

Just use this guy's mockup

 

[the_fan]

Winter classic jerseys are always ugly so I’m expecting something hideous for both teams

 

[The AntiBob]

One stripe on the sleeve, thinner burgundy stripe on the bottom.. With burgundy shorts and gloves?

Used AI on someone else's mockup

The university of Utah facilities are actually quite nice and updated given some of the recent years’ football successes. Aaaand - since it isn’t BYU, they have all the goodies. It’s actually a stone’s throw from the airport as well so people can get in and have fun and get out. Still - am more of an arena fan for ice hockey tho

This was my first thought.

Shitty ice against a team that usually traps us to death. This is going to suck.

We already lost.

Or salt lake will be hit with a good snow storm a few days before
