It's not supposed to be a national draw.

If you think the league can be a national draw in even the best case scenario during the holidays -- when it's competing directly with CFP playoffs, the last two weeks of the NFL season, NBA Christmas Day games, hell even the EPL festive schedule -- I've got a bridge to sell you.
If you think for one second the NHL PR dept doesn’t bet on this being a national draw then you’re sadly mistaken. Why else have it at these landmark locations??Its a sad attempt at attracting new fans while failing miserably short by offering up college level hockey talent.
 
Pay me the same salary these bloated unqualified nhl executive oligarchs get and I’ll gladly offer a solution.
Eff it, I’ll do it for free, cancel all outdoor games, it’s a gimmick that’s been played out and gets worse every year. I’d rather pull my toenails out with needle nose pliers than watch this crap, And frankly I don’t care which teams are playing. It’s nothing more than a revenue gate grab . The casual fan could give 2 flying craps about this.
ah brilliant, just cancel it. pissing in the wind is surely a suggestion, but probably won't get you an oligarch job anytime soon.

One thing I love from these games is seeing the best players in the world flubbing routine plays. I don't remember if it's always like this but this ice is nearing unrefrigerated ODR level bad.
