My ideas for the 2026 NHL Winter Classic: Oilers vs. Avalanche at Mile High Stadium (Avs 30th anniversary) Rangers vs. Red Wings at Comerica Park (Centennials for both teams) The game would be played on New Year's Day 2026. The NHL will probably not do what I'm suggesting.

Today would have been my grandma's 100th birthday. It's a shame she couldn't cross the figurative finish line. I miss her dearly. Her memorial service will be in the spring. #RIP
