The NHL have announced that the 2018 Winter Classic will feature the New York Rangers and the Buffalo Sabres, with the game to be played on the afternoon of the 1st of January, 2018 at Citi Field in New York City.
The home of the New York Mets will be host to the Sabres’ second Winter Classic appearance, after the first in this current series of events was held in Buffalo’s then-named Ralph Wilson Stadium back in 2008.
Oddly enough, Buffalo will technically be the hosts for the 10th Winter Classic as the Rangers have some complicated regulations regarding their playing all their home games at Madison Square Garden.
