Confirmed with Link: Avs To Play Outdoor Game Feb 27th [UPD: PUBLIC sale 10/27]

[EurolancheDavid]

Have you heard any update on when they want to send hard tickets? I read it scheduled for mid-Jannuary + they should send you an email questioning if you address if still valid and correct. But I have got nothing yet since the confirmation of the purchase (I am using US addresses of my friends for delivery).

Bump

If memory serves me, they should be sent out during the last week of Jan or the first week of Feb.

Probably already asked and answered in the thread, but...

...is the Alumni Game going to be televised?

I'm skeptical but the way Altitude has been pumping up Roy playing you think they would.

 

[Cousin Eddie]

I will be devastated if I cannot watch that game.

Looks like it'll be a stomp. That Red Wings Roster is sad.

I'm guessing they're still waiting for confirmation from people?

It'd be pretty disappointing otherwise. Hejduk, Yzerman, Fedorov, etc?


edit: yep

Sweet roster for the Avs. Only missing Hejduk of the guys I really wanted to see.

Not a great turnout for the Wings unfortunately. No Yzerman, Fedorov, Shanahan, Osgood, Hasek, or Vernon. Who's their goalie?

Also, I thought both teams would be bigger. Hopefully there are more names to come.

They will be bigger. Red Wings don't have a goalie. Avalanche have two. Hopefully Detroit gets some good confirmations soon, their list of names is boring as hell.

Yeah, I saw the "more to come" soon after I made my post. Let's hope for some big names

Yzerman and Federov better be there. Same with McCarty and Osgood.

Wonder if Drury can still skate? Would be great to see him in an Avs jersey again.

Was about to post about drury

Always liked the guy, both here and in BUF

Wonder if they drag Rycroft out there as a backup for declined invites.

 

[The Kingslayer]

I wanna see Dru in an Avs uni one more time.

Should see what Vaclav Nedorost is doing that day then

Some youngish scrub is going to be there for sure. Good thing is (at least if you're looking to win the alumni game ) that we don't really have anyone older than dirt.

We should get Steven Reinprecht for the game. The best throw in ever.

Ryker didn't make the 2002 cutoff.

Danny Hinote on the other hand should be there IMO. All his teammates loved him. I don't think he's coaching anywhere right now either.

Ah, I knew he played a couple of years ago still but I see he's still kicking around. Over PPG for the last three years in the DEL.

I see.

I didn't know they made a cutoff

Well Chambers said it, so I guess it's 50-50 on if it's true or not.

Only players from the 1996-2002 era are eligible and more are expected to be added.

Interesting that they ruled out Detroit's old players too. Although I think it's a good choice and have no idea who might have been an option anyway.

 

[ColoradoSportsFan]

I don't think Drury can skate anymore, so I'd rule him out.

Actually shocked that Simon is gonna play.

If they need a last minute call up, the Sheriff is in Castle Rock.
