    Not a problem! Yeah, even for regular season games tickets are $$$! Playoff games are through the roof. But to watch the game at a bar, there is The Local, but personally would stay away from there between traffic and parking. Next best is likely Rundinos which is only two miles away up Edwards Mill. There will be a lot of Canes fans there to watch. More downtown, Tobacco Road Sports Cafe would be a good choice. Village Draft House in The Villages (formally Cameron Village) also gets a game crowd (been there for NFL, but assuming it will for playoff hockey). The this might sound weird, but Drive Shack. It's only a mile from the arena and has a really nice bar and serves food. Those are the ones I can personally attest to.  
    Any good sports bars in North Hills area?

    Angus Barn if you can get in if not try grabbing a seat at the Wild Turkey lounge.

    @pjhawks  ....wish I could recommend something, but I don't spend much time over in North Hills. Used to go to Fox and the Hound there, but that closed in 2022.

    No worries.  I’ll ask at the hotel,  I know there is a Yards in the area.  Can’t wait to get there
