Playoff games always takes precedent for me.
Normally I agree.
Here is my thinking. Montreal is always one of my favorite trips and in theory the Pats should advance to the AFC game. The following week Foxborough wins over Montreal.

I always stay local over traveling during winter months just because you can easily get stranded somewhere due to bad weather...

Getting stranded in Montreal is never a bad thing
You couldn't pay me to go to a football game.

I'd go with Claude's first game against the B's. And besides, there's likely to be a great pre-game ceremony honoring something very important to hockey history you'd hate to miss.

I don't care for the sport.I've been to a ton of football games, and have always had a great time. Lots of fun and a much different scene than going to any other sporting event. The tailgate portion of the day alone is well worth the price of the ticket.
You will have to let us know how it was at a game there.I'm actually giving up my Pats tickets this weekend to drive to Poutineville. Never been to a game there, and it's a bucket list item (I've done Sox @ Yankees and Patriots @ Denver). I've seen the Pats blow out a scrub team in the divisional round more than a few times, so while it breaks a consecutive home playoff game streak for me at 20+ games, I have no hesitation, whatsoever. We'll be able to catch the second half on TV after the Bruins victory and, assuming a Patriot victory, I'll be back at Gillette the following Sunday. Don't know how many Pats playoff games you've done, but I don't think this will be one of the greats, where years down the road folks are still talking about it, either.
@Fenway I'm surprised you have to work at all with all your money.
My wife, son and myself had to follow an army convoy into Montreal during the '98 ice storm and were stranded there for 4 days. It was a fantastic 4 days. 20 years ago now.
