This season or ever?

It was first ever game for me ever. Canucks won 3-1. I was sitting 6 rows back so it was pretty amazing seats. Too bad regular season seats are easily in the couple hundred.

Sweet! Hockey is definitely one of the best sports to see in person. You should be able to get other seats for like $50 or so. It's been a few years since I've been to the Joe but we could still get lower bowl seats for around that. Seeing a hockey game this year is definitely on the list of things to do. :D

I'm not a big Hockey fan in general, but I do enjoy going to games. I just can't get into watching it on TV...

I have friends though who go to Kings or Ducks PRACTICES and games and have season tickets...They are insane though...

Hockey in real life is so much better than on television.

Reminds me of football (not american football).

Its pretty amazing seeing it live. Especially cause here pretty much every evening there is a game you are forced to watch it. After seeing countless games, to see all the players live is really exciting.

hockey ftmfw, the best spectator sport evar, you won't find a casual fan watching a game on tv tho.

I'm planning a trip to California in February or March to catch a couple of games, still trying to decide between SJ or south. Wow, and as I glance up from the quick reply window, there are the google ads for tickets. can google read my mind?!?! No, Winston, they are here!

Ahhh...yes, good job bob.

Hockey is a fun sport....fast, different, high contact, fighting, blood, broken things, fighting....did I mention fighting? I used to play on league teams but alas, no more...only weekend pickup nowadays when I get a moment.

We'll need to touch base when your team plays the Kings.....although the Kings will probably loose anyways (love/hate them).

Cheers

Well, the Kings were 4-1 but now they are 4-4 so there goes my suggestion for coming to SoCal to watch a good (haha) hockey team play. But if you do decide to head to SoCal for a game, keep me posted (I live in the south Orange County area).

Just got back from New York, and boy are my arms tired, got to see the Islanders play the Pens. good game, those Long Islanders can sure pour it on tho. Great fans, my favorite chant was "Crosby takes it up the ass, doo-dah doo-dah, Crosby takes it up the ass, oh doo-dah day." classic!

13 seconds into the game Deryk Engelland got his ass kicked by Tim Jackman. "too much, too soon" fellas (bonus points for naming the movie).
