Andre’s tweets of note:
About the travel: Flight to DC. Just asked to move from my seat (1A) to the back of the plane for weight distribution purposes. Could mean a lot of things.
About the Verizon Center: After a short metro ride, (I’m) here at Verizon Center. I really like this town and this arena. Its actually pretty unique.
About the St. Patrick’s Day warmup jerseys (which you can buy replicas of below, if you are so inclined): Caps warm up in some hideous green jerseys for St. Patty’s. Fun for fans though. They’ll be auctioned off on the concourse after.
About the fans: Lot of Hawk fans here. Can’t tell because they’re camouflaged, but they were loud after that (the first) goal
About the game: Great hockey should never be settled in shootouts. Today’s game will be tough to beat!
Arena rating: 4.72 out of 6.00
