S71 PT#5: That's a Wrap

![]() SHL GM SHL GM
7:04 PM strikes on the clock, the lights go dim in the arena, and Sirius by the Alan Parsons' Project starts to ring through the PA system. The entire crowd harmoniously swung their promotional light-up axes that each fan received at the door for opening night. The starting lineup is announced one by one as they skate out through flames and pyrotechnics. There was flash and awe to be had at the new arena, but there is just one thing the Newfoundland crowd desires. WINS. The pageantry is good for the hype, but if the players can't live up to that hype, this rabid fanbase will turn quickly. "And your Captainnnnn; MITTT WOBETTT" The crowd goes nuts, the puck drops, and heads start rolling if they aren't wearing the correct colors. Berserkers go on to win opening night 1084-0 .. or at least that's how Mit remembered it.
