If the NHL is going to make the winter classic an annual game, it should be between different teams every year. Nothing against the Pen’s, but really don’t want to see em in it again. I think a good one would be in Chicago at Soldier Field between the Hawks and the Wings or Blues. I just think that would be a great game because of the rivalry’s between these teams

second that
I think a game at Soldier field would be perfect! It’s a more intimate stadium anyway I think. The game in Buffalo was cool, but it seemed like the rink was sooo far from the stands.

I'll agree
I want to see the Avs play the ‘Nucks, Wild or Wings at Mile High. Great because of the rivalries, but also becuse it’s Mile High. (For that reason the Stars at Mile High might be kind of fun too, since there is such a strong football fan base in both cities, that might draw non-hockey fans to the game just because of the venue)
. . . .
(btw, I REFUSE to call it Invesco Field at Mile High, Invesco can sit on it!)

Personally
I think the game is something that should be played only once every couple of years. I thought that the game in Buffalo was great, it was fun to watch but honestly, like everything new, it becomes old if you do it too often.

Different teams and venues
I think they should have different teams and venues so all the fans can enjoy such a unique game. As for the “classic” teams, they will have to be in there because the event has to be somewhere cold. It’s safe to say we won’t be seeing the Lighting or the Coyotes.

Classic that would be great to rotate the game between the Original Six teams.
