they the NHL should have two new teams for this event each year!

each team should experience this at least once if they the NHL will continue with this outdoor event.

I agree, it's getting to the point were its losing my interest to watch. If your going to have one every year change it up so I'm not seeing the same teams. Leafs vs sabres would be a great outdoor game. There are so many teams that could have one. So I don't understand why they keep doing the same thing every few years.

ENOUGH of the Pen's already !!

Why doesn't Bettman and the NHL just build Sidney a castle of gold already and build his statue outside of the HHOF too ???

It's unbelievable how the pens always play in the winter classic. Have different teams for a change.

Winter Classics are kinda lame anyway. As a Pens fan, if its not at Beaver Stadium vs Filthy, I'm not interested.

Living in CO I think the AVS vs someone at Folsom Field (Univ of CO) would be a pretty epic setting.

If they play it at Nationals Park, then by rights it should be the Habs. If only so we can spank you in the home of the team you stole from us.

It was not immediately clear which team the Capitals will play, though there is speculation it will be the Philadelphia Flyers, who hosted the 2012 outdoor game.

If you want new teams every year, Buffalo's gonna have about a decade worth of waiting while big fan draws including the Coyotes, Panthers, Lightning, Stars, and Blue Jackets get to play.

And Washington. We'll be on our 10th winter classic while only having 6 teams having played in it.

edit: Its like the Monday night football format from 8 years ago. Patriots-Colts, Steelers-Cowboys, Broncos-Patriots, Colts-Broncos, Cowboys-Redskins, Colts-Steelers, Redskins-Patriots....

Winter Classic is about marquee teams (Detroit, Toronto, NYR, Boston, Chi) or megawatt star power (Wash, Pitts). there are a lot of teams that just don't bring enough interest to warrant a presence in such an event.
