According to Newsday, the Metro Area will be getting its first Winter Classic as Citi Field is close to being named the next site of the NHL’s biggest showcase event.
And your New York Rangers will be a part of it as they will faceoff against the Buffalo Sabres.
The Rangers last participated in the Winter Classic back in 2012 when they visited Citizen Park Park in Philadelphia to take on the Flyers.
Wait, no Blackhawks, Red Wings, Penguins or Capitals? I don’t understand.
While I’m at a fever pitch over this announcement and everything that comes along with the Rangers playing in the Winter Classic at the home field of my favorite baseball team, especially the alumni game, but I’ve got to admit I’m a little disappointed with the matchup.
