This was the first professional ice hockey game that I went to, and even though I now live in Florida, I'm originally from New Jersey, so we were rooting for the Devils. Neither team scored in the first period, the Devils scored 1 goal in the second period, then the Lightning scored a goal in the third period, tying up the score. Game went into Overtime, and neither team scored. Then it came down to a Shootout, and tension mounted as one by one, players tried to score, until finally, the Devils scored the winning goal! It was a totally unforgettable first game for me to see.
