CSN Chicago: Wings/Blackhawks at Wrigley Field

Joe Hass here. Comcast SportsNet in Chicago is reporting that the NHL and the Chicago Blackhawks will announce as early as today (but probably Friday) that they’ve chosen the Red Wings and the Blackhawks for the 2008-09 outdoor game at the friendly confines of Wrigley Field.

As both a Red Wings fan and a Cubs fan, there are no words to describe how incredible this would be for me. Combine the facts that it’s an Original Six matchup, the large number of former Michigan residents (and likely Wings fans) who already live in the Chicagoland area, and the limited seating capacity of Wrigley (40,000, give or take a bleacher bum or two), and I think this could be even more incredible than the Pens/Sabres game last year.
