Long layoff doesn't always equal a loss Why the Winter Classic and NHL outdoor games should be the only NHL game on when they are played. The teams with extra time off wasn't the reason for winning or losing their first game back even against teams already back in action. Recap the Winter Classic between St. Louis and Minnesota. Colorado gets its ducks in a row. Nashville feasts on Chicago's minor league goaltending as Jusse Saros stands out with more shots against. Winnipeg hands Vegas its first OT loss of the year. Dallas get their team out of covid protocol and add to the hockey ops team. Chicago goalied not just by Nashville's Saros but Calgary's Markstrom in back-to-back lopsided losses. Arizona hasn't won or lost in our last podcast. They also had a week break between games to explain why.
