Pierre LeBrun/ESPN - The Leafs will play in next season's Winter Classic, which could pave the way to eventually hosting one.

"We would definitely want to, the league knows we want to host it one day," Tom Anselmi, the COO of Maple Leaf Sports and Entertainment, told ESPN.com Thursday. "We'd like to host it either in conjunction or in the lead-up to our 100-year anniversary. But obviously we need to figure out the building issue."

The 20,000-seat BMO Field, where MLS team Toronto FC plays, is the most likely site for an outdoor NHL game in Toronto.

They would have to expand the stadium to have any chance at hosting a game.
