I did, very cool atmosphere for a hockey game. Crazy that the Pens scored in the first 30 seconds and didn't again until the shootout. Appropriate that Crosby won the game.

as soon as i reminded the wife the game was on, there was no way we were not watching. What was cool (besides the snow falling throughout the whole game) was how into the game the fans were...it sounded very loud in the stadium...even when Crosby got the game winner the place was loud.
My wife told me that if the Flames ever play in one of these we are going...i said fine, not that i would ever pass up going to a game!

I really enjoyed the game. I thought the snow falling made for an awesome visual, although I'm sure the snow on the ice didn't help the players any. It was the perfect game for the non-hockey fan - they got to see the NHL's marquee player win it in the shootout. Bettman couldn't have scripted it better.

For not being an NHL fan, I did watch some of it with my dad today. The sound of the crowd and the snowfall was pretty nice.

I missed the first period, I was watching Canada win gold at the Spengler cup. I thought the old throwback jersey were pretty good as well. With the snowfall and a shootout and Crosby netting the winner I don't think you could have had a better ending.
