GDT: Game 6: Golden Knights vs Buffalo | 7:00 | ATTSN SN360 | KRLV

There was a post game event at the Orleans last night (and I think they'll do it more often throughout the season) and all the local press that aren't doing TV/Radio post game get together to do a radio show on KSHP. Negreanu was there, and I imagine a few of the other local celebs will make appearances. It's just a chill thing with appetizers and drinks at the Irish Pub, but it's a cool post-win nightcap.

It's a long season, bringing it all night in night out will also leave you with dead legs late in the season. They sure are fun to watch though!

By then they’ll have sown up a playoff spot.

Couple other things I just thought of...

Sat upper level, Section 207, Row F, seats 15 and 16, on the aisle. This was between the blue line and face-off circle. Fine overheadish view of the ice, and I wouldn't hesitate to sit in these very same seats for any game. Not so far from the ice as one might think, as T-Mobile is built more "uppish" than "outish."

After the game, escalators were really backed up. Quicker and easier to take the stairs down.

T-Mobile workers I encountered were all super friendly, giving high-fives to folks leaving the game. Beer vendor in our section was a hoot!

Also, very cool that there were so many spontaneous chants of "Go Knights Go!" among the crowd leaving the arena postgame.

That is all.

I had a great time at the game. We tailgated pre and post game in the NYNY garage Floor 6. People were stopping and complimenting us coming in and out of the game. Hahaha

Concessions upstairs along the sides leave a lot to be desired and the restrooms could use a little expanding.

Since we've been there a few times and are comfortable with the place, we went out and did some exploring at the first intermission. There's some pretty great food options downstairs, and tbh they make the overpriced crap food in the upstairs concessions seem a little crazy. Food is fairly reasonably priced for what looks like decent quality fare. Plus, we found the bar downstairs where they'll squeeze lime into a cup for your and pour tour Jalisco beer into the cup. Makes it great.

$14 for a tallboy is a little crazy, but I totally get that they're trying to regulate intake as well as make money.

Great write-up, Nevada Jones.

I have to disagree with one thing, however:

The whole Excalibur sword-in-stone thingy before the game was, as expected, kinda hokey and melodramatic. But I liked it! And so did most of the rest of the crowd

I thought the Excalibur sword-in-the-stone thing reminded me of the Stonehenge scene from "This is Spinal Tap":

Spinal Tap...one of the funniest movies ever!

I have seats in 204 on the aisle 5 rows up, I think it is the perfect view to watch the game. Great view of the ice. I try to eat before the game if possible.

How Ship play?

I was at the game on Sunday (Ship's first) and I watched him on TV last night.

Ship is still adapting to the NHL game. Sometimes he was present and sometimes he was playing soft. He is not a Malkin-type who would go into the corners or apply some of the body. He has not gone into beast-mode, yet.

He might be a legit sniper, but time will tell. He's got to muck it up a little more; otherwise, he'll just need to wait for the perfect pass or errant puck that goes his way to make a great play.
