Stars, Predators Unveil Winter Classic Jerseys

Nothing says old time pond hockey like a match up between two storied hockey franchises like Nashville and Dallas.

 

Hockey has played a big part in Dallas life for hundreds of hours, and not many know this but Braxton Bragg (Army of Tennessee Fame) was a big piece of VMI's hockey team in the early 19th century.

The jersey is a nod to the Nashville Dixie Flyers, the city?s first minor-league team that played from 1962 until folding in 1971.

Henry said the intention was to tie in the history of the Flyers and the traditions of college football and the Cotton Bowl. Because neither the Predators nor the Stars have been around for very long, the idea of relying on franchise tradition wasn't an option.
