The 2013 Winter Classic is unofficially been set to be played at Michigan Stadium, the 110,000 seat football stadium at the University of Michigan. The stadium is in Ann Arbor, 43 miles west of Detroit. Playing against the hometown Red Wings will be Original 6 rival Toronto, the first Canadian team to appear in the Winter Classic.

Due to the distance to the downtown Detroit core, the league is reportedly intrested in building a second rink, perhaps Comerica Park, home of the MLB’s Tigers. The league wants to make the game a “celebration of hockey” and wants to add new events to be held in the downtown core.

An annual college hockey tournament featuring Michigan and Michigan State and other top hockey schools could be a candidate for the second rink. The event is held every year at Joe Louis Arena, home of the Red Wings in December.

The league would like to have this game finalized before the All-Star Game at the end of the month

The GLI OUTDOORS AT COMERICA is the best idea I’ve heard all week.

Me, Carly, Kevin, Lauryn, and Chelsea. Next year.

I’ll be able to drink too. YEEEE.
