Attending a Vancouver Canucks hockey game at GM Place is an exciting sports experience. Games take an average of three hours to complete – this includes three 20-minute periods and two 17-minute intermissions. But as a small market hockey team within the National Hockey League, generating additional revenue through retail sales during games is vital.

When they finally do win the Stanley Cup, something that has eluded them for 31 seasons, the Vancouver Canucks will become the second Vancouver team to win hockey's most cherished award. It was 85 years ago, two years before the formation of the National Hockey League itself, when the Vancouver Millionaires captured the Cup in 1915.
