The game will be on NBC. 1 PM start time, New Years Day.
Hextall lost my respect when he came out of the net and attacked Chris Chelios at the end of a playoff loss.
So, who won? LOL!
FWIW, Chelios' brother Steve moved to Michigan and rented out the condo right behind my house for a year a few years ago........Quite a character if I might say so.....LOL!
He did give me a signed stick, puck and jersy by his brother Chris.......I gave the puck to my sister, and the stick and jersey to my nephew because he plays hockey and he can't afford new sticks all the time......
I loved that. Of course I was a Flyers fan back then. Chelios has been a good ambassador for the game.
As for the game on New Years Day I heard that it might rain during the game. That could be a problem. You have to credit the NHL for stepping up and filling the void created by the BCS moving so many of the games away from New Years Day to other days.
