Somebody tell me how I get to the front of the line for these tickets:
A Rangers-Islanders game in frosty Yankee Stadium in December or on New Year's Day? It's a possibility.Preliminary discussions between NHL and Yankees executives, the two NHL teams, city officials and NBC -- which would televise the proposed Jan. 1 regular-season contest between the arch rivals -- began last week, according to numerous people with knowledge of the talks.
"Everybody likes the idea," said one person. "But there are some obstacles. The question is whether the stadium will be usable at that time of year for that purpose."
I loved the Heritage Classic, and I'm sure New Yorkers would embrace this too.
I hope it happens.
