Roanoke Express 3 defeated Charlotte Checkers 2
Crowd: 4,034
What I remember (in 2024)
Before I headed back for my last stint in England, we went and watched the Charlotte Checkers play the Roanoke Express. This is not the NHL, but it is fast. I can barely keep up with where the puck is, let alone work out what fouls are being called. I can't remember the name of the people we went with, but the poor guy sitting next to me was peppered with questions all night. As I was asking what happens in the event of a draw, the Express scored in the last second and won it. I didn't even see the goal.
