Good to hear that they are taking steps in the right direction. Was this a one off, or something they did all season? No idea. This was the only game I've been to since January 17.

Taro T Posted May 9, 2022 Report Share Posted May 9, 2022 8 hours ago, PromoTheRobot said: There was a live band playing between periods on the organ deck at the last game. They've done that all season. They've had 5 or so different bands that have played. Most of them have actually been pretty decent. The best band name of the bunch is the Plagerists. (Which, IMHO, is a brilliant name for a band that plays all covers.) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was definitely a nice touch they added this year, but they need to do better with the band selection (albeit I've only seen 3 of the bands). Hiring a bar band that roles through a 97 Rock-ish playlist is kind of embarrassing for an NHL team in my opinion. The Strictly Hip would be the closest I'd get to that locally. Really anyone that would leave an impression so people are talking about who's playing before, during, and after the game. Could you imagine a comedian that does 12 minutes of jokes about the other team? I'd love that and there's a good chance a couple clips a year go viral. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ndirish1978 Posted May 10, 2022 Report Share Posted May 10, 2022 I've only ever been to college hockey in person. Is there tailgating or something of the sort for NHL games? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends on the team, the city, and the time of year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
