Big House lease for
Winter Classic
By STEPHEN J. NESBITT
DailySportsEditor
The University's Board of
Regents will vote today to
approve the leasing of Michigan
Stadium to host the 2013 NHL,
Winter Classic.
The regents will vote in a spe-
cial meeting at 10 a.m. in the
Fleming Administration Build-
ing. A University source con-
firmed to the Daily that the event
would involve leasing thestadium
to the NHL, which would make it
more likely that alcohol will be
permitted to be sold inside Michi-
gan Stadium.
Michigan Athletic Director
Dave Brandon announced early
last month that the University
and the NHL were in discussions,
but no formal agreement had
been reached.
"We have been approached by
.the NHL about utilizing our facil-
ity for the 2013 Winter Classic,"
Brandon said in a Jan. 5 state-
ment. "There are alot of complex
-circumstances that need to be
ironed out before anything moves
forward. We willhave more to say

if/when something materializes."
If approved, the game would
likely feature the Detroit Red
Wings and Toronto Maple Leafs
on Jan. 1, 2013, which would be
the first Winter Classic match-
up tbat includes a team from
Canada. It would also be the first
Winter Classic held at a college
stadium.
Michigan hosted a hockey
game in Michigan Stadium on
Dec. 11, 2010 - The Big Chill at
the Big House - a 5-0 victory
over Michigan State. Pending
final approval, the Winter ClIs
sic would be the second outdoor
hockey game at Michigan Stadi-
um and would rival the Big Chill's
world-record-setting attendance
of 104,473.
The Sporting News' hockey
analyst Bob McKenzie tweeted
that the matchup would be made
official on Thursday.
The Ontario Hockey League
revealed a doubleheader match
set for Dec. 31, 2011 last week,
with early speculation being that
the gameswould be held at Mich-
igan Stadium as well. But Michi-
gan dismissed those rumors and
an OHL source told the Daily
the.games would likely be played
instead at Comerica Park in
Detroit.
