To most people a hockey game is the same every time. You're calling on tourists to support the team here, not hockey fans with an interest in the team or even the game. So sure, on one Vegas trip maybe you catch a hockey game, but you probably aren't going to go to one on the next trip because maybe this time they'll up the forecheck and it'll be a totally unique experience.

I'm a hockey fan, I try to go to games in as many cities as I can, and I probably wouldn't go to a non-Flames game in Vegas more than once, and I certainly wouldn't plan a trip around going to a Las Vegas Gamblers vs. St. Louis Blues game on a tuesday in January.
