Great news and overjoyed this will be taking place at Rexall. Gives Edmontonians the dual chance to acknowledge the National Champ Golden Bears accomplishments and see McDavid here in action for the first time. I mean several thousand showed up just to watch McDavid in prospects scrimmages.
Wouldn't surprise me if theres 10K for this one.
i'll be going.
30 bucks is about right considering Golden Bears regular season ticket prices are also higher in recent years.
This is always a high demand game. I think even last year it was over 25bucks.

Season tickets aren't even close to that expensive, but the event has been $30 for the last few years at the Drake. Probably a good idea to have it at Rexall considering the Drake is usually really packed for the game.

Im pretty sure the Oilers, and I think even when they were doing it at the Drake it still went to the Oilers (I could be wrong), but I just assumed that considering the price is like double the price for Golden Bear season games.

It would be nice if the proceeds actually went to the UofA. That would be a good gesture by the Oilers imo considering they are conducting cancer research there (correct me if I'm wrong)

Thanks, I thought that this was about the same price as last year. So pretty reasonable considering this game has McDavid.
I pay 16bucks for regular season Bears tickets.
Yeah this is great that its going to be at Rexall. Now that I've thought about it a sellout wouldn't be all that surprising.
Are all the tickets GA?
I was listening to the Golden Bears head coach on Stauffer and I believe he said it's split between the Oilers Community Foundation and the University.

Great, the less well off now can't even afford meaningless ex games vs the local U team.
Its the same price as last year and the year before that so nothing has changed.
@Replacement, I'm not sure, I would assume its all GA and likely just lower bowl unless they sell enough to starting filling the upper bowl. I liked the setup at the Drake, but it should be a lot more comfortable at rexall with actual seats rather than cramming everyone onto the benches at U of A.

Tickets go on sale August 28th according to U of A website.
"Tickets are available for purchase for $30 each through EdmontonOilers.com, as well as at all Ticketmaster locations starting Friday, Aug. 28 at 10 a.m."

Its $30 not $120

Planned to go, but I have class from 6-9 Wednesdays
And classless the rest of the week
If I knew when this was going to happen, I probably wouldn't have gotten Norm MacDonald tickets.
Does anyone know when prospects camp starts? The Youngstars tourney stars on Sept 11th, but I'm assuming they'll have a practice or two first.

I believe it was last year even though I wasnt able to watch it.
Hopefully they stream it again this year as the interest should be much higher.

It was $30 at Drake arena too.. Now the university students can go watch a good game at Rexall place instead of a crammy cold arena. Uni students otherwise would never see the inside of Rexall unless they were selling 50/50 tickets...
/spinning the other way
