San Diego Gulls vs. Tucson Roadrunners
Most people who have lived in San Diego for years do not know the city has a professional hockey team, which is the single best thing about going. Pechanga Arena on a Saturday in December holds a few thousand people who all know each other by sight, the beer is arena-priced but the tickets are not, and you can sit close enough to hear the boards flex. The Gulls are Anaheim's development club, so the roster is nineteen-to-twenty-four-year-olds playing like their entire future depends on the next shift, because it does — somebody on the ice will be in the NHL inside two years and nobody yet knows which one. Tucson is the opponent, a divisional rival the Gulls see often enough for it to have soured properly. The Roadrunners are Utah's affiliate and play a wide-open, high-event style that suits a building this size, so these rarely end 1-0. Six o'clock on Saturday the fifth, on Sports Arena Boulevard.
