Not sure if this is worth a separate thread, if not, feel free to merge with another thread. But I wanted to share this story. I have been a Rangers fan since 1992, but above all, I am a hockey fan and am always interested in seeing new arenas. Last month I was in New York for a few days, attended a Rangers game on Friday evening and stayed for the weekend. The rest of the story below:

He actually came through and sent me a hard ticket for my collection! Just wanted to share this story with you guys. I hope that's okay.
Today, I had some time to kill with my flight back to Europe at 10:30 PM, so my friend suggested to go to the Devils game. 3 PM puck drop, why not? So I bought tickets for her and me, and we went to NJ. At the game, I was trying to get a hard ticket for my collection but I had no luck at all. These days, it's easier to get a law degree from Harvard, than to get a hard copy ticket at an NHL game. My friend then approached a guy in a suit who was super friendly. Started talking, and he was immediately offering to help. Turns out it was the owner of the Devils. My friend told him I flew in all the way from Austria. So he responds "let me give you my email address, send me your contact details and I'll take care of it"
I just had a conversation over email with the owner of an NHL franchise
I'm at JFK now to fly home. This weekend has been full of surprises!
