Message: [QUOTE="DawgBones, post: 1327672, member: 43840"] Went to my first hockey game in 20 some years. Took in the Islanders vs Capitals last night. Although they lost 4-3 in OT it was a blast to see in person. Ovechkin scored first and everytime he steps on the ice there is an extra buzz in the air. Sometimes it seems as though these guys know what their linemate is going to do before he does it. The Verizon Center is a nice venue and even though we had seats fairly high up(section 405) we were right on the aisle with no one to block our view. Able to watch plays develop and with the Capitals it's almost always an ooh and ahh reaction. Went to the [B][I]Green Turtle[/I][/B] before the game to get primed. It's in the same building and it was a sea of red:eek: Must have been 100 people walking around with Ovechkin jerseys. A tough loss but all in all a good time. Anyone else been to a game lately?
