After months without professional live sports, Calgarians are collectively jumping for joy seeing the Calgary Flames hit the ice again for the 2020 NHL Playoffs. Although we’re not able to watch the games live, there are plenty of places on 17thAve that will be showcasing the games. Watch the Flames on the Red Mile –the authority on all things hockey in Calgary– with a group of friends (and your masks), and enjoy food and drink specials, the camaraderie of sports and playoff hockey.
National on 17th
Even if you’re not a Flames fan, you can catch all NHL action at National’s 17th Ave location and right now, if you purchase a Village Blonde, $1 of every pint sold will be matching 4:1 in support of the Calgary Food Bank, KidSport, and the Alex Community Health Centre.
