from Jeff. Z. Klein of the New York Times,

If the N.H.L. cancels the Winter Classic, it has no plans to reschedule the event for this season, even if there is a prompt settlement to the lockout, said Bill Daly, the deputy commissioner.

Responding to reports that the league will cancel the Jan. 1 game later this week, Daly wrote in a e-mail: “We aren’t commenting on the timing of the Winter Classic announcement. It will (or won’t) be made if and when necessary.”

But he added, “I can certainly confirm that if the game is canceled, there is no ‘resurrection’ scenario for this year.”
