NHL Wrap: Sidney Crosby came out to play in Winter Classic
Pens take Winter Classic in a shootout
The NHL needs more games like this. The NHL is by far the lowest rated of the four major sports in America. Even though the game is pretty meaningless it was awesome to see the game played outdoors in Buffalo in January. There was snow which added to the whole atmosphere.
Sidney Crosby shined in the outdoor game, scoring the game winning shootout goal.
