Wait! When Herb Brooks/Kurt Russel is diagramming play with a marker on the dasher board, while the whole team looks on clueless.

Yeah but! How about…

Okay, my inner hockey fan is juiced. I guess I get a cold and need to leave work early Wednesday so I can kick off Miracle on Ice at 4 p.m. I am a Las Vegas Hockey fan. Sometimes that means sacrifices.

You have to have a tough inner core to be an ice hockey fan in the desert. Sometimes it means watching a movie on a Wednesday afternoon. Take one for the team.
