Turned down lower half upper bowl centre ice tickets 500 each, game 1/2. =( too much for me.
Will TM be more/less/same for pricing?
I think the Day b4 or game day, the prices of tickets will plumet drasitically. Round 1 Tickets were basically the same as Round 3 tickets on CL. When i was searching for Round 1 Tickets upper bowl it started at 250 then leveled off around 150-175 mark. Round 3 it leveled off at the 175-190 mark for the same seats.

True. Going to try my luck on TM first whenever they release tickets. If all else fails, ill try on game day.

Brutal. Friend just got two tickets section 115 for $500 each for game one.
Her seats in sec 107 definitely weren't cheap, but they are club seats which generally go for a premium anyways. Just quickly looking on Stubhub http://www.stubhub.com/vancouver-can...-2011-1054088/ club seats are ranging from $1,400 to $3,200 per ticket for game 1.
Actually she was amazed at "only" having to pay $2,100 per ticket for premium club seats for a final series, as living in LA, going to a Lakers finals game courtside was $35,000 per ticket and $5,000 per ticket for lower bowl. Americans are also used to league finals like the Superbowl average cost was $5,000 per ticket. So as much as the Stanley Cup finals tickets are, it could be a lot worse.
why would i be mad at him? u on the other hand lol now back on topic

Heatley had a high ankle injury.
Pavelski had an injured ankle and Logan Couture played witha broken nose.

Well if the series ends up 2-1 going into game 4, missing that game isn't a HUGE DEAL. It's only a huge deal f it's the championship winning game. Posted via RS Mobile
So Thorton and Clowe both had seperated shoulders.
Heatley had a high ankle injury.
Pavelski had an injured ankle and Logan Couture played witha broken nose.
1. Jason Demers — right ankle, high sprain from Game 7 of Detroit series. Despite what was said during the Vancouver series he never was 100 percent good to go, mostly from a conditioning standpoint, but felt he might have been fully back for a sixth game in the Western Conference finals.
2. Scott Nichol — Torn labrum in his left shoulder that will be surgically repaired later today and a serious laceration above his knee requiring 20 stitches after being cut when he went into the corner with Raffi Torres’s in Game 2. “I don’t know if his skate cut me or it was my own,” Nichol said. He also said there was no way he could have played in Game 3, and when the newly constructed fourth line had success after that, he totally understood the coaching staff’s decision to keep things as they were. The shoulder injury occurred in February, causing Nichol to miss 20 games before returning late in the regular season.
3. Dany Heatley — A broken left hand during the season and a high-ankle injury suffered during Game 3 of the Vancouver series.
4. Ryane Clowe — Shoulder separation, similar to Joe Thornton’s. Going to meet with medical staff today to find out if surgery required, likely three to four months of rehab needed. Clowe said only that it occurred in the Detroit series — even when asked directly if it resulted from that major hit by Nicklas Kronwall. Players said Clowe was so badly hurt he needed help getting his jersey on. “The toughest part was starting the game, but once the adrenaline got going, you start to think about other things,” Clowe said. And he thought that the secrecy worked, because Ryan Kesler kept asking him how his concussion was doing.
5. Dan Boyle — A damaged MCL in his left knee from a March 17 game against the Minnesota Wild, where he went down awkwardly along the end boards. Knee will have to be scoped to see if further surgery is required.
6. Logan Couture — Broken nose suffered when he collided with Clowe in Game 3 of the Vancouver series.
7. Joe Pavelski — Bothered by an ankle problem. He missed eight games from late December through early January with a lower body injury, but no confirmation that was the same issue.
8. Joe Thornton — Surgery scheduled today to reattach the tip of the little finger that was damaged late in the regular season after a slash from Dallas defenseman Stephane Robidas. Trying to play through that forced him to adjust his grip on the stick and that created a wrist problem, too. The shoulder separation in Game 4 of the Vancouver series? They’re going to wait till the swelling goes down over the next two weeks before determining if surgery is necessary.
i lay everything out saying i wont see her as much starting in Oct because i will be watching the canucks almost every other days, she said she is fine with it.
been together for 2 years now, she has no problem with it.
So Thorton and Clowe both had seperated shoulders.

After staying tight-lipped about injuries throughout the regular and postseason, the Sharks openly discussed their injuries at Sharks Ice on Thursday.
Sharks captain Joe Thornton confirmed he played through a separated shoulder that he suffered in Game 4 against Vancouver and broken pinky that would require surgery to re-attach the tip of his finger. Right wing Ryane Clowe discussed a similar shoulder injury that came in Game 5 of the Western Conference Semifinals. He would not however confirm that it came at the hands of Red Wings defenseman Niklas Kronwall.
Unrestricted free agent Scott Nichol also disclosed that he was going in for surgery later in the day to repair a torn labrum in his shoulder that he had been playing through since February. He used the term “band aid” to describe how he held it together for the last three months. Yes, that’s right, band aid.
Although they wouldn’t admit to it until now, the Sharks were pretty beat up. Below is a recap of the players who addressed the media and the injuries they were hiding.
THORNTON

checked out after the word “injury.” He didn’t want to know what happened or what grade of separation it was. It really didn’t matter to him.
“I kind of blocked it out,” said Thornton about the diagnosis. “As soon as they said it, I was like, ‘whatever, let’s just go play.’
“I think once you get into the playoffs, you really can’t think about yourself as being injured,” said Thornton. “You have to think about the greater good of the team. There were a lot of guys on this team that were playing injured and we thanked them for that.”
After he has surgery on Thursday to repair his pinky, the Sharks captain will need to wait a couple weeks before tending to his shoulder. Once the swelling goes down, Thornton will have an MRI that will determine whether or not he needs to have surgery on his shoulder.
When one reporter brought up the fact that former 49er Ronnie Lott had suffered a similar finger injury and had it amputated, Thornton smiled and replied, “I prefer all ten fingers.”
CLOWE

Like Thornton, Clowe played through a shoulder injury. He was unable to put on his own jersey and even needed the help of Assistant Coach Jay Woodcroft to tie his skates. But the adrenaline of the playoffs helped Clowe play through the pain for six games.
“The toughest part was starting the game, but then once the adrenaline gets going, you try to think about other things,” said Clowe. “Anyone who’s played at a high level of competition or something as intense as the playoffs, you just realize that it’s just amazing what the adrenaline does – at home and with the fans and everyone going crazy – it just gets put on the side burner. Of course there’s times during the game where you’re reminded of it, but that’s just what adrenaline does.”
Clowe is unsure whether or not he will need surgery. After a month of rest, he plans to meet with Sharks Head Athletic Trainer Ray Tufts and Team Physician Dr. Arthur Ting to reassess the situation.
“I think this year – more than any other year that I’v e been here – you can see the effects of a playoff battle on our team. That’s a good sign,” said Clowe. “Guys were laying it on the line. Last year, I think, especially when the Chicago series was over, I felt like we could have had a little bit more. This year, guys laid it out there. Guys put their bodies on the line. Those battles – the playoff battles that everyone talks about – your body takes a beating and mentally you take a beating – we felt that this year.”
Clowe did joke about the secrecy regarding injuries. After missing Game 6 against Red Wings, the media was guessing about what kept Clowe from making the trip to Detroit. Apparently rumors that Clowe was out with a concussion made their way all the way up to Vancouver.
“I don’t think Ryan Kessler knew I had a sore shoulder,” said Clowe. “Because in the game he said, ‘How’s your concussion?’”
DEMERS
Sharks defenseman Jason Demers missed all five games of the Western Conference Final after suffering a high-ankle sprain in the second period of Game 7 against the Red Wings.

Detroit won 3-1. The s
“I went to hit a guy and fell right on my ankle,” said Demers. “I came back and after that it was sort of a particular injury. It’s when you put all your weight on it. So it was tough for me to get back skating. I tried everything to get back, but just couldn’t get to where I thought I could help the team more than hinder it.”
Demers explained that his injury was similar to the one Joe Pavelski suffered in December that caused him to miss eight games.
“It’s the type of sprain that can keep you out for a week or keep you out for a month,” said Demers. “So I’m going to talk to the trainers and see what I have to do. But right now it’s just rest and get it better as quick as possible.”
The defenseman added that he wanted to come back for Game 5, but believed the coaches decided against it because he had been off the ice for a week prior.
“They thought I needed a couple days,” said Demers. “Maybe if we had won Game 5, I could have come back for Game 6 or 7.
COUTURE

Clean shaven and somber, rookie Logan Couture addressed the media with a poise well beyond his 22-years. The center admitted that he wasn’t playing through any major injuries, but broke his nose in a collision with Clowe during Game 3 against Vancouver.
“I got hurt in Game 3, broke my nose and I was a little dazed, but that’s hockey,” said Couture. “It’s a tough sport. Guys take hits all the time. There’s no way I wanted to sit out. I’ll play through it.”
This is a common theme in hockey. Broken nose? No big deal. Separated shoulder? Who cares. It’s the culture of the sport and every player respects their teammates for this type of mentality.
“To see Joe play through a separated shoulder – he couldn’t even put his jersey on,” said Couture. “There’s a lot of injuries Joe has had this year. He’s played through broken fingers, broken – basically everything – the guy’s a warrior.
“There’s guys like Clowie who couldn’t even put their own shirts on,” continued Couture. “It’s unbelievable to see those guys battle through that.”
NICHOL
Although Nichol had a ripped labrum in his shoulder, it was a laceration on his knee that kept him out of Games 3, 4, and 5 of the Western Conference Finals.

(AP Photo/Carlos Osorio)
“Nichol had a very bad gash in Game 2 in Vancouver and we lost the ability to use him,” said head coach Todd McLellan.
The cut required 20 stitches to repair.
But that’s old news in the eyes of a hockey player. Nichol is now on to repairing the next thing, which for the 36-year-old, happens to be his shoulder.
“I go today to get my shoulder re-done,” said Nichol. “I tore my labrum in my shoulder in February and I just tried to band aid it up for the rest of the season. It’s going to be probably three to four months rehab so I try to get it done as soon as I can since our summer’s pretty short.”
HEATLEY
When we asked Dany Heatley if he was dealing with any injuries during the playoffs, he responded, “Nothing in particular. Nothing that anybody else isn’t playing with.”
But the truth came out when McLellan addressed the group. Turns our Heatley was dealing with an ankle injury that he suffered in Game 3 of the Western Conference Finals.
“Dany twisted his ankle and obviously wasn’t capable to skate the way that he can,” said McLellan. “That hurt him.”
Upon further investigation, we also found out that Heatley had played with a broken left hand during the regular season.
BOYLE
Although he didn’t suffer any injuries during the playoffs, a nagging knee problem did hinder defensemen Dan Boyle during the postseason.
“The only thing that really bothered me was that I had a fall here before the playoffs started when my legs split open,” said Boyle. “So I really messed up my knee pretty bad and my MCL was a little messed up. I wore a brace the rest of the way. There’s no excuse there. Come game time, I wasn’t really feeling it that much.”
SETOGUCHI
With a shaved beard – and shaved head – Devin Setoguchi explained that for the first time in

four years, he will not need any post-season surgery.
“You know what, this was the first time in my four years in the NHL that I won’t have to have surgery at the end of the year,” said Setoguchi. “I was healthy and that was a first for me. I know a couple guys are definitely banged up and it’s that time of year, that’s going to happen, there’s no excuses.”
Like Couture, Setoguchi went on to praise his teammates that did play through injuries.
“People realize how tough some of the guys are, but they don’t realize what it actually takes to go into a game after separating your shoulder two days before that,” said Setoguchi. “A lot of people, they would stay at home and call in sick to work. But those guys, they laid it on the line for us and it goes to show how much we care for each other in the room and how close we are as a group.”
MARLEAU
Sharks left wing Patrick Marleau will also escape any summer surgeries. The 31-year-old did not sustain any injuries during the postseason.
“No. Nothing major, just normal bumps or bruises,” said Marleau.

Everything is going well except that the next Game 1 of the finals won't be until Wednesday.
Both the owners of the Lightning and Bruins are buddy-buddy with Bettman. Why do you think it was only announced today that Game 1 would be on Wednesday instead of monday like it should have been? Those guys stand to gain A LOT to give their guys just that extra bit of rest whereas the canucks could likely be off the playoff rails by that time. That's why the finals will only have 1 saturday game instead of 2.
Anyways....
Canucks will send them packing with their tails tucked between their legs.
