24/7 Will Return For Season Three

From Wyshynski:
After two seasons that changed the way fans see the National Hockey League and its players, NHL COO John Collins confirmed that there will be a Season 3 for “HBO 24/7: Road To The NHL Winter Classic” featuring the Detroit Red Wings and the Toronto Maple Leafs.
“We’re bringing it back,” Collins told Puck Daddy exclusively on Tuesday, although he said a formal announcement is forthcoming.
There was no guarantee “24/7” would come back for a third season, after a change at the top at HBO Sports. The Associated Press speculated in January that HBO could “decide to keep the show, and possibly expand it from its four-week run, or move in a different direction.”

Leafs and Wings…..two bad teams…..nice move Buttman.
I believe the Winter Classic is more about the event and less about the caliber of the teams. That said, the Wings aren’t exactly chopped liver, though the Leafs might make a good appetizer.
