The NHL is Melting the Ice on Outdoor Hockey

February 22nd, 2016 It was a lazy Saturday night, and I just happened to be flipping through the channel guide to see what would be worth while to watch on Sunday afternoon. There was the Daytona 500, a few NBA games, College Basketball and two NHL games listed on NBC. One of those games happened to be another outdoor game. Yes, another. I sat there...
