I didn't attend a franchise's first playoff game but I did take in the first playoff game back in the Dome in 2004 against the Canucks. The atmosphere was absolutely electric.

I've walked the Red Mile, but some illicit substance blurs most of my memory of that night.

I've met Theo Fleury, who was my hero growing up with the game. It was at one of his book signings and despite the incredible line of people he took time to talk stories, take pictures, and shake everyone's hands.

On my list:
Eventually see a game at every rink in the NHL.
Visit the HHOF.
