And the league bowed to all the bitching from the Maple Leafs and created the "Centennial Classic" where the Leafs will host the Wings on New Year's Day.

Pens and Flyers are also getting an outdoor game next season as well.

I was a lot more excited about the Avs' version before the prices came out. Cheap seats were around $150 I think. I ended up getting a ticket to the alumni game alone, and that was great for me.

The league is really devaluing these games by having the same handful of teams playing every year.

Bitching Maple Leafs? Oh, I'm sorry, I guess the Leafs should just ignore their 100th year and just watch the Blackhawks get every favor from the league.

Are we sure this is about their 100th season and not celebrating the 50th anniversary of their last Cup?

How many times must we see the Hawks? Yikes.

Don't mind the Leafs, I just hate it's against the Wings again.

Reaves ejected on a questionable game misconduct penalty. Chicago spent almost an entire half of the first period on the power play.

That was a tough call on Reaves.

When the Blackhawks announcer disagrees with the call you know it's bad.

**** off Seabrook

Blues are getting fisted by the guys in stripes tonight.

No consistency between the Reaves call and that last Seabrook hit. Both "looked" bad. So why is one a game misconduct and the other nothing? But hey, let's let both sides get away with interference as make-ups.

Is the league celebrating 100 years or 100 wins in the last 4 years?
