I want to play the preds, even if it means more shitty travel for the Canucks
Mostly from a selfish point of view in hopes of seeing some actual decent hockey. The kings would be brutal and we just don’t match up with Vegas. Also after going to the game in Vegas it seems like a VERY hard place to play as the visitor. The fans are crazy and the whole atmosphere etc. makes me wish Vancouver wasn’t so full of whiners complaining the music is too loud etc. Vegas was so over the top and everyone was completely into it

One trip to Seattle and you can tell right away. They are able to have NFL, MLB, NHL, MLS. That is not including college football. I am willing to bet the Washington Huskies pull more fans than our own Lions? lol.

Saw a clip of yesterday of players giving their jersey to fans. Is it a game worn jersey from the past? My mind keeps thinking it must be soaked with sweat and pretty nasty to bring home if it was literally the game they played against Calgary.

What a game between lightning and the maple laughs.
Kucherov joins the 100-assist club after Mc David. Matthew didn't hit 70 goals.

Canucks looking they will play against the Preds unless they win against the Jets to win the Western conference then it would be LA. Edit: I guess it could still be against Vegas if LA wins their last game and Vegas loses their last. | So if we want a Nashville matchup, I guess we want Dallas to win tonight or nux to lose their next game so they don’t win the western conference.

I'm part of a couple Canucks facebook groups where people sell shit and the game worn jerseys even for shit players go for quite a bit.

Not much emotion, and makes things look easy when he's on.
But when he's not on, it also looks like he doesn't put in effort and gives up on plays.

I priced out a return flight from YVR to Nashville for games 3 and 4, return flight on United last night with a stop in Dallas was $407.
Tickets look like they're available in the nosebleeds for about $130usd each.
Cheaper to go to Nashville, hotel, eat hot chicken and watch 2 games than 1 game here?

That ain’t gonna work out to be cheaper lol
If you can chalk it up as a trip sure, but 1000% if it’s about saving money, staying in van and even going to both home games would be cheaper lol

It's kind of spectacular given what's involved/the amount of adventure you'd experience that it's even close though lol

Nashville has been on my list to visit for awhile now, supposed to be super fun, especially recently I've gotten into country music lol.

Yea like even if you were to go to “cheap places” (which I would assume Nashville is not) even then it would be $5 USD beers, $20-$30 USD meals etc.
