When it was announced that Buffalo would be hosting an outdoor game between the USA and Canada at the 2018 World Junior Championships, many Buffalo Sabres fans figured that, since there would already be a perfectly good outdoor stadium available, that the Sabres would host the 2018 Winter Classic.
According to a report today by Newsday, the Sabres will be in the 2018 Winter Classic...just not in Buffalo.
Citi Field, the home of the New York Mets, is rumored to be the site of next year’s premiere outdoor game, between the Buffalo Sabres and the New York Rangers.
