While there were rumors bubbling north of the border that Washington's Nov. 28 game in Montreal would be held at Olympic Stadium rather than Bell Centre, according to Capitals Insider, those plans are now reportedly dead - thanks to the CFL.
The unofficial reasoning given is the Montreal Alouettes, who are considered a contender for the Grey Cup, could make the timing tough to set up the portable rink in the stadium should they go deep in the playoffs.
So, the game will be held in the smaller venue as originally scheduled.
So, after being bypassed for the Winter Classic and now with the Montreal game staying in a smaller venue, the Capitals will have to wait until 2011's Winter Classic to possibly get their chance to play at a large venue.
