Just a "for fun" idea for a thread. I've been going to games at the 'Dome since the mid-eighties, but didn't get a chance to see a live playoff game until I was a teenager. Since the Flames return to the playoffs after 6 years, I got to wondering what my personal record was for playoff games I had attended live.
I was able to track all that information down.
Here goes:
April 26, 1994 L 2-1 (OT) to the Canucks
May 9, 1995 L 5-4 (OT) to the Sharks
April 29, 2004 L 4-2 to the Wings
May 13, 2004 L 3-0 to the Sharks
May 29, 2004 W 3-0 over the Lightning
April 23, 2006 L 4-3 to the Ducks
May 3, 2006 L 3-0 to the Ducks
April 17, 2007 W 3-2 over the Wings
April 22, 2007 L 2-1 (OT) to the Wings
April 13, 2008 W 4-3 over the Sharks (that was the Sarich hit triggers huge comeback game, massively fun to be there that night)
April 20, 2008 W 2-0 over the Sharks
April 20, 2009 W 4-2 over the Hawks
All time record for playoff games witnessed 5-7. Started off pretty poorly but it was getting better before the last 6 year drought.
Will be there on Sunday, so hopefully my personal record improves.
How about you guys?
