So what was your first NHL game? Mine was Thibault's first game in a Hab's uniform at the Old Forum against Brodeur and the Devils. I was behind the Devil's net and there were 2 goals scored in it in every period, thus Montreal won 4-2. Great first experience! What's yours? Habtastic

Mine was an exhibition in Halifax in 1972. Habs beat the Leafs 10-2; Lafleur & Lemaire each had two goals.

My first game ever was in Hockey Town USA @ Jos Louis Arena on Dec. 26 1986 (Christmas gift). The Wings beat the Leafs 4-2. I was 10 @ the time & lived in Windsor. I can remember cheering so hard for the Wings to win that I lost my voice for 3 days. (my teacher was soooo happy about that lol) It was a good day

Later that season..... My mom, brother & I traveled back home to Niagara Falls to visit family. They bought tickets for us to see the Wings play the Leafs in TO on my B/day (January 31) ending with the same results. Wings won 4-2. ..... that was a good day too.
