just got home from the game - what a fun time for me and my kids (they had an absolute blast!). too bad about the ot loss, but whatever.
i'm not sure when the feed for the game started, but before the anthem the arena announcer asked for 13 seconds of silence in honour of the Gaudreau brothers. yea, the arena was pretty empty, but you could hear a pin drop.
the arena announcer then attempted to introduce the anthem singer but the guy was totally breaking down - just so emotional after the 13 seconds of silence.... it was pretty powerful.
i got to meet some flames fans who were an absolute blast - just great guys to chat with!
i was getting chirped by some oiler fan so i lifted my jersey to reveal my florida panthers shirt - that shut him up pretty quick - ha! ha!
