New York -- The Chicago Blackhawks will host the Boston Bruins in the 2019 NHL Winter Classic at Notre Dame Stadium, a league source confirmed Wednesday.
Barstool Sports first reported the Winter Classic matchup to be played at Notre Dame Stadium.
The Bruins hosted the 2010 Winter Classic at Fenway Park and defeated the Philadelphia Flyers in overtime. The Montreal Canadiens defeated the Bruins 5-1 on Jan. 1, 2015 at Gillette Stadium.
Playing in South Bend would be an unbelievable experience for the NHL. Bruins rookie forward Anders Bjork played his collegiate career at Notre Dame.
"I've obviously heard the rumors, but it would be incredible," Bjork said. "I have no idea if it's true or not."
