Account reps are going to be earning there money this year, laughed then cried seeing the renewal requests going out this morning via e-mail. I already renewed however another year or two on this directionless ship and i may be forced to bail....many i know are doing it already as they were holding out hope from the previous 4-5 year "rebuild" and are now done.

I don't know how hard it will be true fans will renewal its the younger fans who might be reading blogs abit to much might be the ones not to get season tickets again.
 
So I'm in town for the game tomorrow and I'm seeing we have a pretty nice storm coming in tomorrow... I'm sure the game will still go on but I'm curious what's up with public transit around here, as in does it continue running in the snow?

Also anyone ever take the bus from the Lieutenants pump? I bought tickets on their site never got an email from them or pay pal to print... Checked my bank account and I have a $0 charge to my account from pay pal I'm so confused.

Unless it's apocalyptic OC Transpo will get you there. They will likely be very late and won't be driving well but they will get you there.
 
Buddy bailed on the game tonight cause of work.
If anyone wants to tough out the weather I'm giving a great deal on tickets.

Section 306, Row A.

80 bucks for the pair with parking.

Bad night for selling tickets man. Stubhub has them going for 10USD a ticket in that section. Lots of tickets all around the 3 hundreds for almost nothing.

If anybody wants to brave the weather, tonight is probably a good night to get premium tickets for pennies on the dollar.

Buses will run no matter what. Could very well still be a better option than driving oneself.

I've never taken the shuttle from there. Without any sort of confirmation that you bought tickets, I'm not sure what to say. You can buy them from the bar itself, but you would need to do that soon...
 
So I'm heading back to the states tomorrow just wanted to thank everyone in this thread for their help. The advice and links on here are awesome and really made our trip fantastic. Everyone we met in the city and hung out with were fun and friendly, you guys have a great city. Thanks again.

Thanks bunk, loved you in the Wire ;)

be sure to come back after we move our stadium downtown!
 
If anyone has a single ticket for the March 2nd game vs the Blues and doesn't want to sell it to some random weirdo who they will have to then sit next to because they bought a block of 4 and one person bailed, I'm in town that week and am perhaps looking for a ticket.

I mean, you'll still have to sit next to a weirdo (me), but assuming you are a semi-regular poster here, at least it'll be a weirdo you sort of know, instead of a total rando.

Advantages:
- I am not a serial killer
- I am generally a pleasant person to watch a hockey game with.
- I have kids, so I am kid-friendly.
- I'm not one of those guys who just frigging talks throughout the game and doesn't watch any of it, holy jesus, those frigging guys. Oh my god.
- I shower regularly. You would think this is just common courtesy and I wouldn't have to list it here, but I can tell you from spending hundreds of games at CTC that you would be wrong in this assumption.
- I have had a beard which pre-dates the current trend of beard hipsterism, so we can talk about how ironic it is that I had a beard before hipsters had a beard before it was cool. That will be a gas, I'm sure.

Disadvantages:
- I know some of the people at the arena, which means I might drift away randomly to go talk to old friends and such. It isn't meant to be insulting, but some people find this annoying, so fair warning.
- I am tall dude and have the body type of a beer keg, and some people are intimidated by this. I promise nothing bad will happen in relation to this fact, unless you are a Habs fan, in which case all bets are off.
- I used to be "hip" and "with it", then they changed what "it" was. Now what I'm "with" isn't "it", and whats "it" seems weird and scary to me.
- If you are just going to the game to drink to the point of pissing yourself, I don't think it's going to work out between us.


*EDIT*
Disregard, have found tickets to Blues game.

I am in Ottawa for the weekend and am planning on going to the game tonight. I'm looking for 3 tickets. I checked stubhub but I can't seem to find anyone selling 3 tickets, it's either 2 or 4. Any suggestions? Is scalping a reasonable option?


Edit: nvm, I found some

Thanks for everyone's help, really enjoyed my time in ottawa. Its actually pretty similar to my home town with just (a large) climate difference.
 
Hey guys, going to be coming back to Canada for a couple of weeks and as luck would have it, will be able to get to Ottawa for the Leafs game on March 12. Anyone have 4 tickets they want to sell?

I'm sorta hoping I can get each ticket for $50 given the current situation/s on the ice. Think I'll be able to score something like that outside the arena before puck drop?
 
Anyone looking for a pair of tickets to this Fridays Senators-Sabres game in Buffalo?
I'm a Sabres season ticket holder and my seats for the game are available.
The seats are located in the middle section - 327 - on the end where the Senators shoot first and third periods.
They are 10 rows up - the middle of the row - directly behind the net.
I'm looking for $24 each for them - they will have to be emailed. PM me if interested.

Hey guys!

Girlfriend and I were driving toward Ottawa from Montreal to catch tonight game against the Ducks and our car broke down while on our way!

If anyone want to help us out and catch tonight game below face value, send me a DM! I can send them to you by email since these are E-Tickets. They are in section 312.
 
Fat Tuesdays is moving to the centrum this should give fans another good bar to go pre and post game.
 
I don't live in Ottawa anymore, it would be really stupid of me to buy a ticket package, but it's looking more and more likely that I'll be in town for the Alfie jersey retirement thingy... if anyone gets tickets and can't go, please please pm me.
 
Great! I have my plane ticket, I'll be in Ottawa on Dec. 29, no doubt about it anymore. If anyone here has a ticket to the Alfie retirement game and can't use it, please let me know first. I'll pay top reasonable dollar and you will know that your ticket is going to a true Alfie fan in an Alfredsson heritage jersey. I'll go alone if you have only one ticket, but I'll buy up a couple more if you have 2 - 4. 100s - 300s anywhere is okay.

Edit: I want tickets to that game and I understand it's going to be a long term project to get them. If you see this in 2 or 3 months and want to unload your tickets then, if this is still here, I still want them and I'm still willing to pay top dollar.

I am coming to canada for the first time to watch a sens game this year, got tickets in the first row behind the player bench, does anyone know how the sightline is?
bit afraid I wont see much behind the players.

Also any tips of how to get the max out of my visit there is appreciated.

To be honest, it's not really the players blocking you since they are generally sitting, as much as coaches and even looking through the glass at an angle can cause limited site.

As for getting the max out of your visit, would be best if you told us your age and personal preferences of activities and when you are coming. There's a range of activities you could do depending on those.
