DENVER -- Does the deputy commissioner of the NHL worry about outdoor game fatigue? Maybe just a little, although Bill Daly thinks the league has hit a comfort zone with the number of games currently being played outdoors.
This year there were three outdoor games: the Winter Classic in Boston and Stadium Series games in Minnesota and Denver.
"It's a little bit different next year because it's our centennial season starting [in] 2017, so we’ll see what next year has to offer, but I don’t think you want to do too many of these games,” Daly told reporters on Saturday night at Coors Field in Denver, where the Colorado Avalanche played host to the Detroit Red Wings.
