Hockey Day in Canada maybe a tradition in Canada but us Americans are watching you all day as well on our NHL Center Ice Package. We share in the love of Hockey & Canada as well. I can't wait for the January 13th Canadian Holiday.
Stephen SoltisWashington, D.C.
I've watched hockey day in Canada the past two seasons on the NHL Center Ice package and find it wonderful. I'm considering visiting a town where the festivities would be occurring for next year's event. Please post updates so I can plan accordingly. Thanks!

About Nelson, B.C.
- Find Nelson on a map
Located in the Selkirk Mountains, on the shore of Kootenay Lake in southeastern British Columbia, the city of Nelson was founded in 1886 and was originally called "Stanley" after Canada's Governor General, Lord Stanley. Nelson's hockey roots reach much further, however, producing great NHL talent including Danny Gare, Pat Price and Greg Adams. The small city was also the hometown of Lester and Frank Patrick, hockey's royal family, whom many credit with creating modern hockey with several innovations including the addition of blue lines, the forward pass, penalty shots and the playoff system.
Nelson's mayor, John Dooley, says "we are absolutely ecstatic that CBC has chosen Nelson to host Hockey Day ... This is a true winter sports community, and hockey is an integral component of culture in Nelson and the surrounding communities. It is wonderful that CBC is taking the initiative to bring their Hockey Day broadcast into rural communities such as Nelson and connecting us with the rest of Canada."
