Going to the game tonight. The tickets were free, it's in a suite and the drinks are free, and we will eat some overpriced but reasonably tasty arena food - so that's all good. But I expect the Avs to dominate early on and win going away. Upside: don't have to stay to the end and fight any traffic.
I think it was last season (Jan 2025) where the Sabres choked in the 3rd and then lost in OT. My friend and I were predicting out loud what was going to happen with uncanny accuracy and the Avs fans around us kept looking at us like "how did you know?" Yeah, that was fun.
