It's so cold in New Orleans that people are playing hockey on Bourbon St.

The southern United States is undergoing a a winter storm with frigid temperatures and snow accumulation in states like Texas, Alabama, Louisiana, Georgia and Florida.

Call me a conspiracy theorist, but I think NHL commissioner Gary Bettman might be behind all this. After all, we all know how obsessed he is with growing the NHL in the 'Sun Belt'. I kid, of course, but it appears like I might be on to something because the cold temperatures in New Orleans, Louisiana have brought out at least one hockey player.

How cool is that!?!?
