The game is almost six months away, but players with the Flyers and Bruins can't wait for the 2010 Bridgestone/NHL Winter Classic.
Philadelphia is providing Ray Emery with a second chance at the NHL, plus a bonus in the form of the 2010 Bridgestone/NHL Winter Classic.
After last year's Winter Classic in Chicago was a tremendous success, NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman is already enthused for Jan. 1, 2010.
The 2010 Bridgestone/NHL Winter Classic will feature the Philadelphia Flyers and the Boston Bruins playing on an outdoor rink in Boston.
