Ohio Stadium is in the mix to host a future NHL Winter Classic outdoor game featuring the hometown Blue Jackets, according to a report from The Columbus Dispatch.
According to the report, NHL representatives were on site to witness Ohio State football’s win over Michigan State last Saturday to perform a site survey for a potential hockey event in the stadium at a future date.
“We remain very interested in and excited about hosting an outdoor game, and have had numerous discussions with the NHL and Ohio State about doing so,” Blue Jackets spokesman Todd Sharrock told The Dispatch. “Those discussions are continuing.”
