It's a big night in America, as the votes pour in to determine the 45th president of the United States.
On a smaller scale, Tuesday marks the first matchup between oft-compared superstars Connor McDavid and Sidney Crosby.
The two first-overall picks are the modern faces of their respective decorated franchises, but Tuesday's contest shares an eerie parallel with the first game between another pair of Oilers' and Penguins' legends.
You can't make this stuff up.
