How often does a Houston sports team play for a championship? This is your chance to see that actually happen as the Houston Aeros host the first two games of the Calder Cup Finals on Friday and Saturday night.
Sure, it's minor league hockey, but it's the biggest minor league championship of all. It took a controversial goal with 1:13 left in an epic Game 7 for the Aeros to get here and now they are four wins away from a title. The Binghamton Senators — an Ottawa Senators' affiliate — stand in the way and this is no small deal in Canada. You may not love hockey, but this is about the atmosphere and the passion in the arena more than anything.
