The Winter Classic first took place in 2008 with the Pittsburgh Penguins and the Buffalo Sabres facing off in what would be the start to a now long-standing tradition. Every year since then, two teams are selected to play on New Year\u2019s Day in what is called the Winter Classic. This season, the Stars and the Predators are at the center of it all with the game being held in the Cotton Bowl Stadium in Dallas, the furthest south the Winter Classic has ever traveled.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the reasons this highly-anticipated matchup has drawn so much attention is that the two participating teams released new retro-themed jerseys for the game. This year, the Stars revealed their Winter Classic jerseys (pictured below) and had them up for pre-order on November 6. The jerseys sold out in less than a day.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"5891\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/eagleeyemedia.org\/?attachment_id=5891\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/eagleeyemedia.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Winter-Classic-Jersey.jpg?fit=1024%2C576&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1024,576\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Winter-Classic-Jersey\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/eagleeyemedia.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Winter-Classic-Jersey.jpg?fit=584%2C329&amp;ssl=1\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/eagleeyemedia.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Winter-Classic-Jersey.jpg?resize=573%2C322\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5891\" width=\"573\" height=\"322\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/eagleeyemedia.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Winter-Classic-Jersey.jpg?w=1024&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/eagleeyemedia.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Winter-Classic-Jersey.jpg?resize=300%2C169&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/eagleeyemedia.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Winter-Classic-Jersey.jpg?resize=768%2C432&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/eagleeyemedia.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/Winter-Classic-Jersey.jpg?resize=500%2C281&amp;ssl=1 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 573px) 100vw, 573px\" \/><figcaption>Photo from dallasstars.com<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>This season the Winter Classic jerseys were in such high demand that the Dallas Stars franchise had to re-release a limited supply of the jerseys a week later in-store only, explaining that they were not expecting such a high quantity of orders. There has also been an unexpected demand for young players such as Roope Hintz and Miro Heiskanen that simply could not be met during the pre-order release.
