I used to have a beer stein of Red strawberry Kool-Aid during each period during the '04 Playoff run. I couldn't take a sip until 0:34 had been played and I had to finish my last sip with 0:12 left.
They lost game 6 in the SCF because I didn't watch from home and I didn't bring my Kool-Aid mix with me. It was all my fault.
I tried to do it in 2006 and 2007 and kinda just forgot about doing it after that. Then I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and all Kool-Aid was out the window!
In 2015 I drank two bottles of Rickard's Red each game, because, well... Red!
In 2017 I don't think I followed any habits or superstitions. The superstitions seem to go away as I age. Now, my traditions will just be something small to do after each victory. Such as drinking a can of Calgary Flames branded beer after each victory, which I mentioned in a previous post.
