The arena is filled, the temperature is cold, and red lights begin lighting up all around the arena concourse and ice. There's a sick light show of a cgi phoenix absolutely going to war with a dragon (representative of Calgary). The phoenix comes out victorious as the crowd cheers. The phoenix mascot storms out to the ice, but he's not alone! With him is an army of otters from the local Atlanta aquarium. Their high pitched squeaks are somehow still audible among the crowd cheering and cooing at the adorable creatures. They're given a quick tour around the rink, some opting to slide on their bellies, before being wrangled back to the safety of the locker rooms where they're given many oysters as treats. With this, the team storms the ice, ready to take hold of what is shaping up to be potentially the best season ATL in recent history.
