Last night, The Hockey News' Ken Campbell dropped a worrisome bit of news on us all:
With rain possible and forecast of 7 celsius Thursday, I've been told NHL seriously considering scrapping women's and alumni outdoor games.

League could scrap women's and alumni games Thursday to preserve ice for Winter Classic Friday.

So this could be trouble. Looking at the forecast from the NOAA:
| Today | A slight chance of rain after 4pm. |
