St. Louis Blues: The NHL Could Benefit From A Players Weekend Event

Major League Baseball is entering their third season with Players Weekend, a three-day event where the players receive alternate jerseys with their nicknames on them, and the St. Louis Blues would have some great uniforms.

The St. Louis Cardinals were featured in the first-ever Players Weekend where they faced the Pittsburgh Pirates in Williamsport, Pennslyvania. The two teams spent time at the Little League World Series mingling with the young baseball players.

This event was a huge success, and the NHL should adopt a similar week or weekend to what the MLB has instituted. Though finding the timing for a weekend like this would be tough, because, unlike the MLB, teams don’t play every day.
