Hawks in an outdoor game in March and in Chicago. hmmm, weather can be anywhere from -15 to 80 plus degrees out there.....surprised if this is remotely true to being considered in March.
 
I doubt 24/7 will follow Chicago/Pittsburgh. They'll follow Toronto/Detroit, and even then, now that it's not a 2-team, 1-time-per-year thing, I don't even know if HBO will be involved.
 
Hell to the yes. I can't wait. I'll be there. I will not miss it for the world. Looks as though I'll come back home for the weekend and have a kick-ass time.

The Penguins are not commenting on the game, which still needs to be finalized.

Pretty sure I have the week off of school around then. Would seriously consider coming down to Chicago for this as my first ever Hawks game :amazed: (IN Chicago)
 
I would like to see a game in SF. The Wrigley game....a baseball field is really not set up for a jockey rink. It was a neat novelty but SF will be awesome!
 
Yeah. My typing on the iPhone is total crap. But a jockey game would be interesting with all the little fellows skating around.
