Default What playoff traditions are you initiating before game 1?

Car Flags have gone up today - Hanging up my patio flag tonight. Wanted to rig up some red LED's around my patio window to go off like the pregame playoff navras but haven't gotten around to that yet. Might be a pipe dream for now.

Jersey's are coming out on Saturday.

Going to be odd celebrating the playoffs alone though!

I'll be wearing a different Flames jersey every day starting July 28. Starting with Lucic.

I don't have any playoff traditions, but I have a couple Flames mugs and I only drink out of them during Flames games.

Same. As far as I’m concerned they have 5 regular season games left and need 6 points to get in. If they beat Winnipeg the flags will go up.

My tradition is watching a Navras themed opener from 00s home playoff games because the epic is off the charts, and putting on some Spitfire.

However, not sure if I should keep to that tradition given our rate of success.

Yep. I don't consider the play-in series to be playoffs.
Still exciting, but they have work to do.

My Flames flag will be hanging from the front of the garage starting Tuesday.



Then there's my Flames golf bag and headcovers I use during the golf season. My golf pro is a huge Oilers fan and he gives me the gears when he sees it.

It's a play in. Playoffs don't happen until after all this is done.

I will be tuning the television to the game a few minutes before puck drop. Then we’ll go from there.
