With the Winter Classic coming up real quick, I wanted to see who on the Penguins or Sabres has experience playing outdoor games.
A Trib article gave me the answers. Both Adam Hall of the Pens and Ryan Miller of the Sabres played for Michigan State in the Cold War of 2001 against Michigan.
Two other Penguins, Georges Laraque and Ty Conklin, played for Edmonton in the Heritage Classic in 2003 against Montreal.
So I went to the intertubes to find a picture of either Laraque or Conklin in the Heritage Classic. The above picture is the only one I could find. Its Ty Conklin. In the Heritage Classic. Getting scored on. Dany Sabourin had better play well.
I don’t want to see him repeat this pose in Buffalo.
