This was discussed on NHL radio a week or so ago. They didn't know for sure but they believed that Toronto would start in Florida on Saturday since they end the season there on Wednesday anyway, and the rule of two Canadian teams would likely have Vancouver start the late game on Saturday, meaning likely Sunday for the Jets or even Monday. Colorado is on the road on the 18th so it's unlikely they start at home, if they do, on the Saturday.
Yeah. Realistically it’s Sunday or Monday. I threw in the Tuesday just incase Colorado has home ice and the arena is booked.

Yes, that is the truth. The law of supply and demand is pretty simple and I don't fault those who can finally make it work for them.
I will attempt to go to all the games, but its good to know that when life gets in the way and I have to move some tickets, I won't have to take a complete bath while trying to support the team.

Actions speak louder than words and TNSE doesn't act like an organization that is losing money.
This is a total shocker with him stating the obvious from that older "news" story.
The ghouls who get their rocks off by wanting sports teams to move won't like or accept his clarification here.

I wouldn't describe people who want sports teams to move as "ghouls", as I recall there was an awful lot of people like that in Winnipeg in the five or six years leading up to the return of the Jets. But I would say that this article definitively bursts the balloon of anyone in Atlanta, Albuquerque or wherever that was salivating over the opportunity to get their hands on the Jets.

Checked the ticket map this morning. Looks like other than a few singles and resale tickets, the pickings are slim for the entire first round.

It looks like seat selection is better off ticketmaster. The fees raise my blood pressure a little bit, but it comes down to where you want to sit and your price point.
Good Luck!
I've bought tickets from fansfirst.ca three or four times during the regular season this year and have always been satisfied.

I am so fortunate to be part of a season ticket group. I am paying $140 for my p5 seat in round 1. I noticed the cheapest pair of tickets on Ticketmaster is $350 each in the upper deck. Wow!
Game 1 is probably Monday (according to Winnipeg Sports Talk)
I was waiting for the schedule to be leaked before purchasing tickets. Looks like I waited to long.
Based on history, the longer the run, the easier it is to find tickets.

Its funny how fast the perception of a fan base can turn around. We went from a summer of doom and gloom with ST holders abandoning ship, through a season of rising expectations but with still low attendance numbers, to a city ready to pop with playoff excitement with playoff tickets scarce and very expensive. Chipman has got to love that turn around.
My guess is because tickets went on sale to the general public, who didn't have an early purchase option at 10:00 AM yesterday

Can’t you just stand outside the arena and find someone selling tickets!?
