Around SBN: Ray Allen Fighting Age, Injury And His New Role

A good look at the OSU & CBJ partnership that was announced back at the start of the summer, how it affects the arena situation, and where things are right now.

Host some Buckeye’s hockey games…maybe against Michigan. Nationwide is a beautiful arena.

I still say a Winter Classic at the ‘Shoe’ against Detroit would be wicked. You could go to the ‘Big House’ as well. Just be amazing to see like 100,000 fans going nuts.

Philadelphia Flyers/Columbus Blue Jackets...don't ask me how.

I’d love to see Columbus as a site for the Frozen Four – even a regional site? That’d be really awesome.

I’d love a Winter Classic here – it would be fantastic!

Yeah but good luck convincing Bettman that anything other than Sid/Ovie part 342 is going to be worth it.

Maybe if you could lure the Frozen Four to Columbus and be successful…you possibly open doors for the possibility to host a Winter Classic in Columbus.

I forget where they had that one game over in Europe but having like 80,000 fans show up and cheering is an impressive site. Having it at ‘the Shoe’ and being able to host 100,000 would be a spectacle in itself.

Alas, I would have to agree with you Tolliver, probably got a snowball’s chance because the marketing value isn’t as great as Ovie/Crosby. Be nice to see someone get creative and think outside that box.

honestly, If columbus puts a competitive team on the ice for a couple seasons, I could see this happening. especially if those couple of seasons resulted in CBJ vs. Detroit playoff series

I hate the steelers the way a mother loves a child.

Uhhh

We already had the frozen four in 2005 at the Schottenstein center. I’m not sure where you guys were.

Yes, but I think it would be neat to have it at Nationwide.

Uhhhhh

not anywhere near Columbus.

+ ‘05 my access to hockey was limited…hell it was limited for a lot of people unless you were really around the area. Isn’t technology nice how it delivers something that can be out of your view range and put it smack dab in your house….

also this is more of connecting OSU with the Jackets now, today, present time.
