Coachella Valley Firebirds vs Calgary Wranglers - Canadian Night
The desert is full of Canadians and almost nobody outside it knows. They started coming in the sixties for the winters and never entirely left, and there are stretches of Palm Desert and Rancho Mirage where the licence plates read like southern Alberta in February. On this Wednesday the team throws them a night, against a Calgary farm club, which is about as pointed a piece of booking as the AHL allows. If you have never heard two thousand snowbirds sing a national anthem that is not this country's, inside a building where it is seventy-five degrees outside in January, that is the thing to come for. It is also a weeknight, which means the arena is mostly actual hockey people rather than the giveaway crowd, and the hockey is better for it. Puck drops at 7, 75702 Varner Road. The snowbird season runs through March and brings a whole parallel calendar of its own down here.
