if anyone has a pair of lower bowl they want to sell PM me, willing to be a premium but nothing outrageous
the markup on CL, scalpers, etc. wont be insane until the weekend games, if game 1 is on a weekday should be slightly above face

i can't believe you guys are actually paying those prices for tickets... Honestly I would rather spend 1000 bucks on stanley cup final game, than 200 for a game 1 or 2 round 1. Round 1 and even 2 series games are pointless to go to.
Enjoy the games with your friends at a bar near downtown or at someones house with a bigass HD tv and cheap beer.

You're way more emotionally attached to the team when you're with thousands of others who are feeling the same way.
And not everyone can afford $1000 tickets. I can barely afford $200 tickets.

I'd rather go out with my all my buddies to watch the finals and go to first round with just a few of them. Me or my friends can't afford 1000+ tickets so why not go out to a bar and watch with them. Posted via RS Mobile |

I just gave up. No luck for game 1 and 2, I was using three computers
I had a chance for home game 3, sec321, row8 for $230 a piece x3. Clicked back and it was gone...
Now I got home game 4, sec 305, row15 for $157 a piece x3. I hope they don't need to go all the way to game 7, but it's gonna be epic in a game 7 building.

I guess some of you rather go to a cheaper game than no game at all, but personally I think watchign games live is a bit overrated especially with the price tag that comes with it... And I hate big crowds even if they are all canuck fans

And I hate big crowds even if they are all canuck fans | dude you just said you'd rather go to the stanley cup game but you think watching live is over rated and you hate large crowds? Just stay home then and leave the tickets for someone else that wants to go.
I WANT to go to the stanley cup game but I don't have $1000 just lying around. If i did, I would go. I want to spend money to see whatever game I can. I'm not going to go and spend out of my means (which seems like a common trend in Vancouver) just to see a hockey game. Yes I love my Canucks but not at $1000 for a few hours live, simply because I can't afford it.
