It's planned that F/A-18 Hornet will fly over the Stadium. Rare sight in Helsinki.
Considering the projected snowfall, will anyone even see it? Not to mention will it get a flight clearance? -16 C and snowfall, sounds like fan torture.

IIRC last year (when I was lurking) the title was OT: Finnish Winter Classic: HIFK - Jokerit, or something pretty similar. I've seen enough other threads not involved in any way to the NHL in that section during this past season, how is this an exception not to be involved?

We should make similar tomorrow morning and explain some stuff why it should be there. It's pretty lame if the new policy is just NHL. Hockey world should be united and these kind of things just separetes us.

Was this thread marked as OT originally? If not, I can undestand why the mods moved it.
But ye, if we make it clear that it's a OT thread at that part of this forum and explain why it should be allowed to be there, I think the mods will let it be.

Then I undestand, mods are really strict about stuff nowadays. Whoever makes the thread, make sure you mark it as OT and explain it properly so that it won't get moved.
