Awesome aside from the OT loss. The building was so loud.
Did you at least save your ticket from that night? I go this Sport Card Expo twice a year at the International Centre and there is this seller who always has ticket stubs to a lot of Leafs games for sale, so given the historic night for Matthews I bet someone would pay for it if you really wanted to sell it.

Once in the old gardens and once at the ACC where I got to see Mario Lemieux at the end of his career. I wish I could see more, but I can't afford it and I live a few hrs Northeast. I have seen a few Leafs games in Ottawa though lol. I can't afford it sadly being a single income guy with bills and way too many other expensive hobbies that come first.

Programs, to me, are a waste of beer money.
Personally I like to collect them, especially if it's from opening night I went to for the start of the 2000-2001 season, 2002-2003 season, 2003-2004 season, 2005-2006 season, (Which featured the very first NHL shootout) 2006-2007 season and the 2008-2009 season.

Plus there are my programs from the playoff games I attended in 1999, (Game 5 ECF against Buffalo) 2000, (Games 2 & 5 RD 2 vs New Jersey) 2001 (Game 3 RD 2 vs New Jersey) and 2004 (Game 1 RD 1 vs Ottawa) which were all Leafs losses.

Just one. The last game of the 2015 season vs the Montreal Canadiens.

The Leafs lost in a shootout.

Probably won't be to another in a very long time. Due to living in Newfoundland or Alberta these days.

At least you can say you were at the last game of the Peter Horachek and Dave Nonis era, since both were fired by Shanahan the next day.

I'm jealous of the amount of games a lot of people in here have gone to. I've been a Leafs fan for a long time and have never been to a game. I am thinking of planning a trip to see them eventually, but living in NS I hardly ever get the chance. I've been to 2 NHL games in my life.

My guess is around 30. Dad has season tickets, so I've gone to at least one game a year since 2000. Over the past 5 years I've been going to 2-3 a season.

Most notable:

Winter Classic in Detroit.
Centennial Classic in Toronto.
Game 3 against Washington in Toronto.

6-5 win over vancouver way back when it was healy vs weekes
a 4-3 loss to the habs about 10 years ago
in 2010 i went to back to back leafs losses vs the isles 3-2 (in OT) and the rangers 2-1

but I don't live in Ontario, and the the year I lived in Toronto the lockout was on the go (got to see a bunch of games for the marlies when they went to the finals though!)

Been to 100+ at the ACC (Best ones being Game 6 vs the Bruins and Game 3 OT win vs the Caps)

Been to about 15-20 away games (Best ones being the 6-0 win @ MTL this year and 6-0 win @ MTL in the shortened season Feb 9, 2013)

2, both in the 02-03 season, a 4-3 loss to the Rangers which was Coaliacovo's NHL debut (which saw him make a huge mistake to give up the game winning goal), and a 1-0 win against the Devils.

Maybe 4 in Maple Leaf Gardens and 4 in the ACC.

3 Times in TD Garden Boston. Back then it might have been called the Fleet Centre.

I've been to about 8.

5 in Ottawa and 3 in Montreal.

Never been to a game in Toronto. Its on my to do list.

One of the interesting games I've been to was the one in Ottawa years ago when the Leafs were down 5-1 and came back in the 3rd to tie and win in OT. No one in the rink really realized that the Sens bench had the flu at the time. Epic comeback. I think it was Nolan who scored the winner (or tie-r).

The other fun one was the game where we clinched the playoff berth in 2013. The arena was at least 60% Leaf fans that night and to say it was a celebratory scene would an understatement.

2 of the games in MTL were during that season where we tanked at the end (18 wheeler and all) if I remember correctly. We had 2 games in MTL back to back or Thu and Sat. Anyway I had tix to both in the lower bowl... those games sucked majorly.

I've lost track now. 60+?

My first game was the 2nd last game at the Gardens. I was so young lol. I wish I remembered more from that day, and that great arena.

I go to the home opener every year, and normally about 5-6 games a season, with the exception of Babcock's 1st season here, where I only went to one other game.


Programs, to me, are a waste of beer money.

I make a habit of buying a program to every game I go too - I have a drawer that I keep them all in. Superb keep-sakes
