Rangers reportedly eyed for Yankee Stadium game

ESPN.com news services

Yankee Stadium has been the setting for scores of World Series games, but what are the odds that a Winter Classic follows a Fall Classic in The House That Ruth Built?

Only time will tell if the Yankees play in October, but there seems to be a decent chance that a puck will drop at the stadium next winter.

The NHL and the Yankees are continuing their work toward a deal that would call for the Rangers to play host to a 2008-09 regular-season game before Yankee Stadium is shuttered for good, the New York Daily News reported in Monday's editions.

I was just going to post this.

I like the Winter Classic.

I don't know how much I'll be interested in other ones though. I have a feeling I was so into this one because it was my team and my city playing.

I would goto this just because its in Yankee Stadium. If it was at some place in Michigan for the Wings, I wouldnt give two ****s.

Wow. Every single sports writer I've heard comment on this hates the idea. Something about the final game in Yankee stadium shouldn't be a hockey game.
