so yeah, nootka realized his error, but I was going to say 'outdoor game', but then I realized that that would be way too easy to peehs. So I went with 'Winter Classic', which does not include the outdoor game in Edmonton, even though that was pretty incredible (lol at it being too cold to play outdoor hockey)
