Now I've got a few questions. Would you say that it makes sense to buy tickets a few hours before puck drop in front of the arena or would you go the "safe" route and buy them online at the risk of overpaying (if that is even possible)? I'm unsure since I've never done this in North America and this will be the first time I'll see the Canucks in person.

In my opinion no point in buying from scalpers unless you want to do it for the thrill of it. Stubhub and other online places are pretty cheap. I can't even imagine there would be many scalpers down there at this time of year... would take guts for sure.

Personally I've never had a problem with buying from scalpers and I've done it a bunch of times. If you can find cheap/affordable tickets on stubhub I'd recommend just going with those. The price difference isn't much and you know they're legit.

I used to buy from a couple recognizable scalpers often enough a few years ago. Right after puck drop prices drop too

My family has had lower bowl seasons tickets since the inaugural season but have moved to Calgary. My brother stayed in Vancouver and pays for the tickets, but sells a lot of them because $10k+ for tickets is a lot of money and games for one single guy.

For the first time in a long time we're worried that he will lose too much money on the tickets and we'll have to give them up. They're basically the best seats in the house and it would be super disappointing.

Best seats in the house are the champions club no doubt about it. Best food, Linden or some other Canucks management always drops by and talks with the people sitting there, a canucks player will come in between the 2nd intermission for a jersey raffle, legit in full game uniform and everything. Always have alumni too, I don't think anything beats the experience of the champions club

I predict.... Renewals plunge 99%. Canucks forced to put cardboard cutouts in seats to make arena look full.

Anyone renewing?

"Renewals are down this year, this market clearly is not willing to accept our rebuild. Jim, trade our picks for talent that can win now, we're aiming for the playoffs next season."

Yep, I'm scared this delusional ownership group will interpret things this way.

I can see ticket renewals in the 50% range if not lower. I think it was around 75% last season. It's been 99%-100% for the last decade so quite the drop.

I doubt the queue to become a STH will be very long if they ever decide to rejoin.

That's in US though and plus fees. After everything, it's close to $70cdn for 2 tickets
