The sweaters give it away before you have reached your row. More championships than any club in the sport, a following that has spread across the continent over a century, and a particular kind of supporter who will talk to you unprompted about a team they have never lived near. Montreal visiting is the closest a regular Wednesday gets to an occasion. For the home crowd it is a measuring stick and a slight irritation in equal parts, which makes the noise in the building sharper than the fixture deserves. Come for the thing that does not translate to television: a room where two completely different ideas of what a hockey club is for are sitting four seats apart and both convinced. Get there for the warmup and watch which end of the ice the away support has gathered behind. It tells you more about how the night will sound than anything in the programme does.
