Going to next Saturday's game against Edmonton. I haven't been to a Flyers game in 12 years.

This isn't exactly a ticket-related question but I was wanting to know how long before the game they let you in the arena. WFC site said 90 minutes before the scheduled start time, is that accurate?

If you're going that early, probably better off going to Xfinity first.

Curious for full time season ticket members, how far "in the red" are you on average each season? Obviously season tickets aren't worth it if you're just doing it for the money, but I'm curious how far in the hole you'd be if you went to anywhere between a quarter to half of the games.

I was looking at maybe doing a partial ticket plan next year, but with the way ticket prices currently are and were last year, it just doesn't make financial sense to do so. Obviously it would be different if the team was good, but obviously they're not right now.

Last year I lost $251 after selling 36 games out of the 44. I had a company suite so I used that most games. The playoffs saved me.

This year I have lost $237 after selling 14 game out of 23. I've had five games where I couldn't even give them away and I wasn't going to sell them for $6.

That's strictly total income/games sold and not the other games "used".

I’ve sold most of the tickets this year and am looking at taking close to 50% hit give or take. If you are interested you can just put the deposit down and then wait till after the offseason before you start paying. You can structure your payments to work better that way. That’s my plan. Looking for a good head coach, too UFA and crossing my fingers for Hughes. If they get Q, Panarin, EK/Stone, Hughes the tickets are going to sell like crazy.

Has anybody heard anything or had any dialogue with their rep regarding the Town Hall or Meet the Team this year for STH's?

I guess I'm lucky because I have friends and family who buy the tickets before the season even starts. I divide the overall cost of the 2 seats by 10, which entitles each "share" to 4 games, pick a random order, and run a fantasy-style ticket draft via email. Right now, I have 2 "shares" and I split one with my dad, who also has 2, so I get to see about half of the home games.

Nada. I still have the email from October 3rd where it says the Town Hall is TBD and an exclusive event at the Linc for the Stadium Series game is TBD.

The town hall typically isn’t until after the trade deadline.

But I haven’t heard from my rep since November. Although I think I had a lot of full voicemail boxes

I can’t say with confidence any compelling reason to keep my seats though. There’s very little done to protect us, especially from people who scalp from day 1.

My buddy and I are coming down for the Anaheim game. Hitting up Philadium at about 1030 for a late breakfast/early lunch and a few cold ones.

We don't have tickets yet. So my question - Is it best to wait till about 10 minutes before puck drop to get the best deals on stubhub/seatgeek? I've never done anything like that, so I'm just curious.

I haven't heard from mine since October 23rd at the Top Golf outing I won. I saw him at one of the games and I said Yo John .... he looked at me like I had a 3rd eye. Last March and April I couldn't get them to stop calling.

So far this season id say yes. That said, the game is an afternoon game which have less available tickets that are more expensive. They still haven’t been that bad, but the afternoon game tomorrow is selling pretty well. I actually got the highest ticket value all year on it for my seats. I think the ducks should have less draw. I think you’ll be good. If it was a Wednesday or something you for sure would be good. It won’t sell out on stubhub but prices may be high still. Maybe keep an eye on it.

What would it take from the Habs to get:

- Konecny
- Myers ( or hagg is the price is too high for Myers)


is Konecny a no trade since he's playing first line minute ?
