According to sources, there will be no college hockey game at Gillette Stadium connected to Winter Classic.
The Bruins and Canadiens are playing in the annual outdoor showcase game, which is in Foxborough this year. Because there could be playoff football, the ice won’t be down nearly as long as it was at Fenway and there won’t be many as games.
UMass, which obviously has a relationship with Gillette Stadium through football, was a likely candidate to play if there were college games.
