Blues have all the fun in convincing victory over the Blackhawks in the Winter Classic
Associated PressCHICAGO — St. Louis coach Jim Montgomery walked around before Tuesday night’s Winter Classic. “It’s just really cool.” The Winter Classic returned to Wrigley on the final day of 2024, and the Chicago Blackhawks threw quite a party. “Having family and friends here to experience something like that at Wrigley Field, an amazing thing, and then winning on top of it.” Just a couple weeks after he was acquired by St. Louis in a trade with Anaheim, Cam Fowler celebrated his 1,000th NHL game with two goals. But I feel bad for our fan base coming out to this and we kind of lay an egg.” The day began with Bedard and the Blackhawks — carrying their sticks and skates and dressed in custom “Team Chicago” gear — using one of the city’s famed elevated trains to travel to Wrigley. “We just thought it would be a great opportunity to honor Wayne and everything he’s done for the game,” Blues defenseman Justin Faulk said.
