I think the lighting and settings make this game look awesome on TV.
The lack of snow is weird, but it not the "Winter Classic", it's a "Stadium Series"

I would normally not watch LA vs Anaheim, but this is a cool game to watch, even though LA looks abnormally slow on the ice.

Why do they put glass behind the benches? So the coaches don't fall and can lean up against it?

Why does Gretzky look so much like Bettman right now?

It looks weird with green grass surrounding an ice hockey rink.

Still pretty cool, though. Must be nice for the fans to be able to attend an outdoor hockey game in their t-shirts and shorts. Can't say that's happened at previous outdoor NHL games.

At least they're not playing an "outdoor" game in a dome, like they will be in a little over a month.

Game of Thrones theme played by the organ guy at the outdoor game. I like that

Everything looks really cool, but the crowd is really dead, taking away from the experience.

You barely heard anything when the Kings player was hooked and then the ref pointed to centre ice.

Could just be the way the cameras are and how far away the crowd is, but other outdoor games, including Calgary, you could hear the crowd just fine.

Anaheim has been throwing their weight around quite a bit this game.

I think the way the rink is mic'd stifles the crowd sound.

The people in the outfield look like they're a mile away.

Seems like a dumb song to play in LA.

People bash James Hetfield for losing his voice over the years, but at least Metallica has managed to stay relevant. Kiss just sucks now
