State of play: The team is throwing a free watch party Tuesday outside the Delta Center.

5pm: A "mountain blue carpet" will roll out for the team as they greet fans and head inside the arena.
5:30pm: Country singer Shaboozey, known for "A Bar Song (Tipsy)," is set to perform on the big stage at 300 West and South Temple.
6:30pm: Fighter jets will fly over the arena and plaza, operated by pilots from Hill Air Force Base.
The ice will light up on two big screens when doors open to ticketed fans, with the game slated to start at 8pm.
