Weather conditions don't look ideal as of now for the 2025 NHL Winter Classic, which means there is a chance the game could get rescheduled to a new date.
No strangers to outdoor games, the Chicago Blackhawks have faced off against the Boston Bruins, Detroit Red Wings, Pittsburgh Penguins, Washington Capitals, Minnesota Wild, and St. Louis Blues in previous match-ups.
This time, the Blackhawks will renew that rivalry with the Blues at Wrigley Field after their 2017 meeting at Busch Stadium. The Blackhawks lost that one 4-1 to Alex Pietrangelo and the Blues in a very feisty affair.

The Blackhawks last played the St. Louis Blues on January 2, 2017. Seven years ago Jonathan Toews and Alex Pietrangelo were the captains of their respective teams and the Blues were on their way to winning their first Stanley Cup in franchise history a year later in 2018.

But could winter weather disrupt what promises to be another classic clash between these rivals, whose history dates back to 1967?
According to Ben Pope of the 'Chicago Sun-Times', the forecast is less than ideal for hockey, with potential snow and even rain threatening the event.
With the Blackhawks set to welcome the Blues, and star forward Jordan Kyrou, to Wrigleyville, the game represents the team's seventh outdoor appearance.
If the weather cooperates, it could be an opportunity for Connor Bedard and the Blackhawks to notch their second-ever outdoor win.
The Blackhawks enter this one at 1-5-0 outdoors, but a win in Chicago would put them at 2-1-0 at home. Hopefully, the weather cooperates!
