Which is exactly why the best way to do it although it's a bit too late now due to wait list is to get an icepack or season tickets.

I was lucky and applied during the West Coast Express days and only on the wait list for 1 year before I was able to get an Icepack. What I do every year now is pick a few games I intend to go to and sell the rest for TM face value. With the discount we get the TM face value I sell them for still givese me enough profit to watch my games for free.

I have Upperbowl 2 tickets this year and my Finals Game 2 tickets only cost $380 for the pair. If only I had Full Seasons =\

thanks guys, i think going for the experience should be priceless.

I was at 1994 rangers final as well and its was $60 upper bowl face value :D

My manager has club seats row 1, sold them for $4500 for the pair! Insane

Canucks should try to steal Hesigner...offer him a nice contract to continue to develop players for them.

RS Meet at CBC Plaza? looks like hardly any of us will have tickets hah

i'm still going to look for tickets but i'm sure there's tons of scammers on craigslist right now..

buy from stubhub.com
more expensive but at least it guaranteed

Anyone know if Icepack holders have the same deal?

which pub dude..
haha

I'm heading to Forum for the game.

Yes I'm an Icepack holder and we get the same discounts.

if I can't find tickets I'll be going to cbc plaza for game 5. Is there drinking that will be happening outside??? What is a good time to get there to get a good spot? Sorry, I'm from outta town so don't know this stuff. thanks :)

it would be my first time heading down there. i'd try arrive there by 4pm but i've got work until 4:30 on game day. i don't think there would be alcohol allowed since it's outside with the general public.

who's going to the jets' opening game?


I know there is still a long way, but I'm tempted to drive there and experience the thrill.

FYI and i'm sure you all know but just in case they are adding 2 additional screens downtown for your viewing.

Canuck fans will have no shortage of places downtown to watch the Stanley Cup Finals with fellow diehard fans.

Two new viewing sites were announced by the city and CBC Tuesday.

A giant television screen will be set up in the 700-block Granville Street, in the prime pedestrian block sandwiched between Georgia and Robson Street.

The screen will be mounted on the back of a flat-deck truck that will be parked on Granville Street —— similar to the setup during last summer’s World Cup matches.

The CBC Fan Zone outside the CBC in the 700-block of Hamilton, between Georgia and Robson, will also get another large TV screen.

The site has already proved to be popular with fans — rain or shine — during previous Canucks’ playoff matches. Both sites will open at 3 p.m.

“The excitement and anticipation for the first game of the Stanley Cup playoffs is building in our city, and we want to make the most of it,” said Mayor Gregor Robertson in a media release.

“As we all join to cheer the Canucks, we want to ensure the city’s celebrations are family friendly, fun and, most of all, safe for everyone.”

Fans are asked to tote their own chair or blankets, but are advised to leave the booze at home.

Vancouver Police officers will be on-site, Chief Jim Chu said.

“We want the focus to be on the game. Leave the liquor at home and allow our officers to focus on keeping everyone safe,” he said.

Both locations will show home and away games.

Last week, Canucks management also announced that Rogers Arena will be open for fans during the team’s away games.

I think Winnipeg/Manitoba will be called the Moose...they have spent a shit load of money on branding.

Ladd is RFA with strong arb case who is one year away from unrestricted free agency. May be first big test of WPG's ability to sign players.

It will be interesting to see what happens here..

"must sell out arena to work out" - gary bettman

dont make sense when florida panther tickets are $15 each with free hot dog and a drink... fatass americans probably just go watch hockey game to chill with the AC :troll:

^ as much as i hate bettman, i think that statement is based on arena size.


i just heard it on the radio, so i'd say it's true.
