The Scenery For The NHL Outdoor Games At Lake Tahoe Looks INCREDIBLE

There are people that say the NHL has worn out the outdoor game concept over the years. It all started with a single Winter Classic, then they started adding more and more. The Heritage Classic, the Stadium Series etc. At this point the league has played in basically all of the major stadiums that people have been asking for. But with COVID 19 lingering, they pivoted in quick fashion this year to truly take these games back to the pond hockey roots.

There will be 2 games this weekend - both televised nationally on NBC. You can get full info on each game and all of the festivities HERE.
