2017 will be a big year for the National Hockey League and Canada alike as it will be Canada’s 150th birthday and the NHL’s 100th birthday. This would be the perfect time for Canada’s capital to host an outdoor hockey game and according to several sources, the plans are already in the works.
The locations confirmed to be considered are Parliament Hill and TD Place.
Parliament Hill would be a fantastic location because it is an important landmark for Canadians and would be most fitting for Canada’s centennial celebrations. However, it also poses many potential issues ranging from space and cost to security.
