[edit] AMP NHL Winter Classic

AMP NHL Winter Classic (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

It's just one regular season game with no true significance other than the fact that it's outdoors. It's not like a Super Bowl game; it's a regular season game halfway during the season that has no significance Ksy92003(talk) 00:17, 5 October 2007 (UTC)

  • Strong keep. Are you kidding? This is a first-of-its-kind event in the United States, and it will most likely set at least the NHL attendance record, if not the hockey attendance record altogether. This is a major event in the history of the NHL. Should we delete Heritage Classic too? How about Cold War (ice hockey)? After all, they are both just one game too.

  • Strong keep, are you kidding? per Skudrafan. Nominator should be aware that NHL games are normally played INDOORS. Stay with stuff you know about. Mandsford 01:11, 5 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep Is actually a pretty special game/occurrence. Jmlk17 01:16, 5 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Weak keep. Yes, I think this is newsworthy and notable, but it seems to be a time-bound event that is more appropriate in a current events category. Is Wiki the place for single events like this? Will someone update it after the game is played? (will it be noteworthy then?) I don't know the answers to these questions or what Wiki policy is with reference to these types of items, so defer to those more knowledgeable. Renee 01:21, 5 October 2007 (UTC)
