3. Game 1

This is the big one. Game 1 sets the tone. It’s the one that determines who gets the momentum. Over the course of NHL history, the team that wins Game 1 has gone on to win the series 112 percent of the time. I may not have that number exactly right, but it’s something close. Game 1 is everything.

(Note: By the end of the series, you will not remember anything that happened in Game 1.)

13. You develop an irrational hatred toward the other team’s anthem singer

This is a weird one, since this is the one job in the entire series that’s basically harmless. But at some point during a playoff series, you will come to hate the other team’s anthem singer.
