Just bought tickets to Pens vs Panthers on the 22nd, excited for my first NHL game!
That is great!! Enjoy and go Pens!
You will be blown away by the speed at which the NHL game is actually played - it does not come across on TV. Enjoy the game - go Pens.
And the sound - NHL is the best sounding sport IMO.
It is a new week. Let's go Sharks we need a regulation win!!!
Kraken are playing well and my Sharks still have not won in regulation 
Pens win! We're assimilating as you can tell from the attire.
Some observations from our first NHL game:
1. We were in the top shelf but the view is still pretty awesome
2. Much easier to follow the puck in person than on TV
3. The puck-stick sound is so much louder than expected
4. There are more stoppages/breaks/ice shoveling than expected
5. It's chilly in there
6. Can't wait to go to another one

I went to a handful of Thunderbird and Silvertips games and enjoyed them, but this was different, I might be a convert.
Hershey Bears were my introduction. Got interested in the Flyers a bit later because my vocational teacher was from there and eas a big fan. Later in San Antonio, got hooked on the Iguanas and the Dragons. Nowadays, I'll support the Flyers and the Penguins.
One of the wildest fan pairings I know of is a former coworker who grew up in Ketchikan, and is a Bruins fan.
