About the 2022 Winter Classic

After a decade-plus on NBC’s airwaves, TNT gets its first shot at airing a Winter Classic matchup. The Wild have hosted a “Stadium Series” tilt in the past, but this will be the team’s first-ever Winter Classic. The Blues won their only appearance against the Chicago Blackhawks back in 2017.

A Blues win keeps them in first, while a Wild win brings them up to the top of the Central Division. With the playoffs on the horizon, any points help, and two points at the Winter Classic would mean quite a bit for both teams. TNT plays host to this year’s event, here’s how to watch:

The weather expects to be frigid, with temperatures approaching 0 degrees Fahrenheit as we approach puck drop. In a stark contrast to the league’s approach while playing outdoor games in southern California, the ice in Minnesota will actually need to be warmed to create a safe, skateable surface for the players. Famously, the ice at many SoCal games needed to be constantly cooled as the surrounding temperatures sought to melt the ice.

Winter Classic 2022 Betting Odds

According to DraftKings Sportsbook, the Wild are home favorites, grabbing -125 moneyline odds. The Blues enter as +105 underdogs. The game’s over/under is set for 5.5.
