Krendelev Posted January 9, 2013 Report Share Posted January 9, 2013 I'll be going to games. It's not fanatics like me the NHL has to worry about though. I'll always support the league. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYIJM29 Posted January 9, 2013 Report Share Posted January 9, 2013 I wanted to protest some games, but with the Isles leaving NVMC, I really don't want to miss any opportunities of going there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LAK74 Posted January 9, 2013 Report Share Posted January 9, 2013 I love hockey too much to hold any grudges. I am SO there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC Red Wings Posted January 9, 2013 Report Share Posted January 9, 2013 My team won't be playing any local games because of the lockout, so I guess I'm not going to any games this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsl135 Posted January 9, 2013 Report Share Posted January 9, 2013 Absolutely I'll go to games. I've already made plans to make it home to Philly for the Flyers-Pens next weekend (followed by PSU-VT), and I will go to any games the Flyers come to Buffalo for.

Flyers845 Posted January 10, 2013 Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 They already have my season ticket money so why not right!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orangeblitz47 Posted January 10, 2013 Report Share Posted January 10, 2013 I'll be going to the last Ducks home game. Other than that I won't be going to another game this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greyraven8 Posted January 13, 2013 Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 No, won't be going. Even if I lived in an NHL city or closer than a 7 hour plus car ride (Jets or Wild) to one I probably wouldn't go. Haven't gone to my local university team's games yet; I'll likely go to at least one of them. My interest in NHL hockey this year is less than usual; much more interested in playing hockey and checking out a local game or two. Probably won't watch much NHL on t.v. - maybe around playoff time depending on how I feel by then and what the match ups are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYIJM29 Posted January 13, 2013 Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 Isles raised season/individual ticket prices before the lockout....raised them AGAIN after the lockout Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mnwildfan7000 Posted January 13, 2013 Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 I am going to several games! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cygnus X-1 Posted January 14, 2013 Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 They already have my season ticket money so why not right!? Exactly. Besides, as much as I want to be all "screweth you, NHL and players", I like it. I missed hockey. If I don't go to the games, I'd sell my tix so they would still get their money. Better it be me.

CJ Matthews Posted January 14, 2013 Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 Unlike last year where I wouldn't miss a game unless I had class, this year, aside from the opener and the playoffs, I don't care if I miss games. I'll sell the tickets and if I can get double or triple the face for good games like Pens/Flyers/Devils etc then I'll happily sell them.

TMLFAN Posted January 14, 2013 Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 Not that I can afford to go to any Leafs games but I usually get tickets somehow to at least 2-3 games a year. I have chosen not to go to any games this year and will only watch on tv. Looking at the attendance a lot of places are got for open practices today it looks like the lockout will not affect attendance on tiny bit. It will be interesting to see what the draw is like in places like Phoenix, Nashville, etc. after the first couple weeks of the season.

jukierules Posted January 24, 2013 Report Share Posted January 24, 2013 Being a fan of a Western team living in the east kind of stinks sometimes. This season originally had a couple of good games for the Flames in Ottawa and Montreal that I was going to check out, so much for that. I don't think I'll be going to any this year now. The closest teams to me are Montreal (about an hour away) and Bahstun (about 3 hours away) and their tickets are so expensive that it's really not worth it to me to take a jaunt to a game. I will be up in Montreal in a couple of weeks when they are playing the Leafs, but I'll just be taking it in a Peel Pub. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went to the Blackhawks/Blues game last night, and that's probably it for this season. I'm about at my average, since in a full season, I usually go to two games. The playoffs? We'll see.

NYIJM29 Posted January 24, 2013 Report Share Posted January 24, 2013 I did the two Isles home game this past week and am strongly considering heading to Jersey for the game on the 31st. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dsl135 Posted January 25, 2013 Report Share Posted January 25, 2013 I went to the Flyers' home opener last weekend, and have plans to go to Washington for the Caps-Flyers game next weekend (as well as a few others), so in total, here is my list for the year: - 1/19, Pens @ Flyers - 2/1, Flyers @ Caps - 2/2, Hurricanes @ Flyers - 3/30, Bruins @ Flyers - 3/31, Caps @ Flyers - 4/13, Flyers @ Sabres I may sprinkle in a few more, haven't decided. But these are all definite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akell Posted January 26, 2013 Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 I'm making the trek down to Nashville on Feb 10th to see the Blackhawks take on the Preds. I have never been to Nashville before but I hear its a real good time. I can't wait. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brilliant! Posted January 27, 2013 Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 Washington isn't the only team. I really think I'm one and done with the Rangers this year. Not only do they have practically ZERO Friday and/or Saturday night home games but my ticket prices went from $37 last year to $53 this year. I might have gone to my last Garden game in a long time last week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
