BOSTON - Monday, December 21, 2015 - Mayor
Martin J. Walsh and First Night/First Day Boston, in partnership with the
National Hockey League announced today that the 2016 Bridgestone NHL Winter
Classic on January 1, 2016 will be live streamed in Copley Square for First
Day attendees. The Boston Bruins will face off against the Montreal Canadiens
at 1:00 p.m. at Gillette Stadium. For First Night/Day, Copley Square will be
decorated with ice sculptures and festive decor.
"I am grateful to First Day/First Night
and the NHL for teaming up to put on this special event in the city,"
said Mayor Walsh. "The City of Boston is home to some of the best sports
teams and the best fans in the country, and there is no better way to watch
the Boston Bruins defeat the Montreal Canadiens than on a big screen TV in
Copley Square."
The Bridgestone NHL Winter Classic is an
annual event held by the National Hockey League in which two teams play
outdoors, and has become a New Years Day tradition for all of the hockey
fans. And this year, Boston is making NHL history, as the Bruins are the
first team in the league to host this signature game for a second time.
This live streaming is a partnership between
First Night / First Day Boston and the National Hockey League, allowing fans
the chance to enjoy the First Day programming while watching the game.
