Pics From the Winter Hockey Classic

As you know, I'm a avid hockey fan. And if you happen to love hockey too then you know that the Winter Hockey Classic was played this afternoon on New Years day at Fenway Park. Below are some pics I found featuring this great new hockey tradition. I hope that one day soon they play under a Southern California sun.

BTW, congratulations to the Bruins on a great win in overtime. Also, the USA Olympic hockey team was officially announced after the game and 3 Kings players made it onto the roster. They are hard hitting forward Dustin Brown, defensemen Jack Johnson and rising star goalie Jonathon Quick.

In other hockey news, a World Junior Hockey Championship tournament game between the USA and Canada was played on New Years Eve. Unfortunately, USA lost in a squeaker during the overtime shootout. Below are video highlights and go here for a nice write-up from MayorsManor.
