I think there are a lot of valid concerns regarding outdoor games that different bloggers brought up in this forum. I personally think there are too many unknown variables the NHL would have to depend on for the outdoor games to work and it doesn't seem like the most viable option. If it made that much more money to have the outdoor games then I'd say try it but it would be if you can do the rapid testing like one blogger wrote and maybe get to 1/3 capacity then I think that's be ideal. Then again, I'm not a scientist or expert and I'd implore the NHL to listen to the experts on the matter and see what the next step would be

Wouldn't the cost of running outdoor venues out weight the revenue generated by having partially filled football stadiums?

They will just kill the spirit and importance of the game. Stupid idea to even have the stadium series. Just stick with 1 game only on Jan 1st, and not be greedy. Also, don't let a team in the game more then once in 10 years. I don't wanna see the flippin Blackhawks or Pens in that game anymore, unfair to the teams who have never gotten it. I know, I'm a Wild fan. We have been waiting long enough, and now we gotta wait longer because of Covid
