How long do hockey games generally last?

[Fire in da hole]

Have tickets in the suite tonight to the Lightning game and not really sure how long to tell the babysitter we will be gone for.

I'm assuming they generally last 2.5hrs?

[lakerboy]

3 max.

Each 20 min period takes 38 min real time.

Plus 2 breaks of 20 min each.

thanks LB!!!

It is fluid as it depends on a lot of things that happen between whistles (penalties, altercations, arguments, fights, play reviews) but the 38mins estimate is pretty accurate.

I always used the 1hr per period guesstimate and record hockey games for 3.5hrs so that I allow for a slow start and overtime/shootout.

Thanks BD....

Anyone have a prediction as to who wins and/or over/under for the game?

Tell ya what, you right about the babysitter part. Used to hear stories about babysitters cleaning the house, washing dishes, etc. Now, I'm just happy the fkn house is still on the foundation when we get home.

The baller portion is a complete lie, I'm a broke dik fuk.

Took me 5 years to save enough cans to finally make it to a bash..

Fire, have fun, buddy! Look forward to the vid.

Funny, so I was playing craps at the Hard Rock Friday night next to a couple from Montreal. Guy had no clue and kept asking me what to do and just tailing my bets. Table was running hot for a while, and as we're chatting, he's like "You should come up to Montreal." Turns out he has season tickets to Canadiens games that are Row AA behind the bench! I'm like Fukk, sounds good to me. We exchanged numbers but who the heck knows if he was full of shit. Exchanged texts with him once.

Do I plan a trip to Montreal? I've never seen a single game in any sport from courtside, first row, or whatever. Would love to.

Depends on if there is overtime or not. In a normal match without OT, according to Hockeyinfo.net the average hockey contest last 7 hrs and 33 minutes. Which is why I dont watch hockey also because the rink is too small and too many players on it, also because its hard to keep up with the puck sometimes, also because of the silly intermissions where they actually leave the court 2 times each time about 17 minutes, also because there are much better sports to watch, also because...

Biggest jerkoff of the bash

Guy kept knocking on my door and running away at 5am

Ordered me room service, 18 hamburgers and 10 fruit trays
Saw him later and he said "enjoy the hamburgers you penetrating hamburger?"

Me and him squared up, but BigDay separated us.
