In a preview of the NHL Winter Classic matchup, the Philadelphia Flyers visit the New York Rangers on November 26 at 2pm. This will be the first visit to the modified Madison Square Garden for the Flyers, as MSG is currently undergoing a 3 phase renovation project.
The Flyers are in first place in the NHL's Eastern Conference with 25 points in 19 games. The Rangers have played two fewer games and are just 2 points behind. There are games to be played before this matchup but there is a chance that this game will be for first place in the conference. Adding a little more incentihttp://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gifve to this already bitter rivalry.
Bad blood exists between these teams and has for decades. Do not be surprised if this game at MSG on the 26th has more than its fair share of events which will lead to an all out war heading into the NHL Winter Classic on January 2, 2012.
There's a good chance the NHL might be in for the first fight-filled Winter Classic as these two Eastern Conference rivals make no secret about their dislike for each other. The hits are harder, the shots are harder, everything is jacked up a few levels when they meet. This might be the greatest Winter Classic yet!
