Confirmed with Link: Oilers Rookies vs Golden Bears at Rexall Sept 16

[BarDownBobo]

Ian Herbers(?) would be coaching against his former team in this, right?

Potentially. Todd Nelson was the coach for the last two games vs the Bears so if they follow that trend it could be Gerry Fleming too.

if anyone needs it the presale password is rookie

Do Draisaitl and Nurse qualify as "rookies"?

Why would either of them, especially Nurse, not qualify?

 

[Muad'Dib]

The Bears, who will once again open their season as the defending Canadian Interuniversity Sport hockey champions, will collect a portion of the proceeds from the $30 tickets. The Oilers Community Foundation will get the remainder.

Thanks man, I owe you a beer lol

Great seats to, just to for warn every one its not just a first come first serve seating. Tickets have seat numbers and rows on them now. I recommend buying today.

Ditto. Section 136, row 3! Great seats.

I searched for seats for like 20 mins, until i got 102 row 8

I guess I got lucky. That was my first try. Only got 2 tix though, that makes a difference as well.

 

[McShogun99]

Is the "Oilers shoot twice" zone the same as a normal Oiler game?

 

[Replacement*]

Wow, tickets going fast. All good seats in lower bowl between goal lines are gone. Only end seats and upper bowl not on sale yet.

I think I'll just wait till they open upper bowl for sale.

Kinda bs why they do it this way and open up only part of the building at a time.

Damn straight demand is strong enough to warrant them opening up whole building for sale. Already thousands of tickets sold in presale

Anyone know how different the Oilers dressing room is in comparison to the away dressing room?

Would be a cool gesture by the Oilers to let the Golden Bears use their fancy dressing room for the game and essentially be the "home team" for the game.

Doubt it's something anyone has even bothered to consider. Sort of meaningless really. But it would be a neat thing.

Nice opportunity for some seats in front of the glass never been up front.

Huge difference, although its a fair size there is no bling to it. Actually Calgary has a way nicer away dressing room.

WOOOoooo. Just got my ticket - I'm stoked!

 

[McFlyingV]

Of the seats left what would you guys recommend for buying 2 (was thinking a few rows up just in front of the red line).

Row 7 puts you above the glass in Rexal. Rox 4 to 6 arent that bad, and row 1 to 3 are pretty obstructed. All different experiences though depends if your behind penalty box or the benches, the benches are really obstructed.

Yeah Ive been front 3 before and didn't really like it from the corner. I would love somewhere around centre ice above Row 7 but they're already sold out. Do you guys know which side on the chart I'd expect the oilers to be on offence periods 1 and 3, and which side the penalty box is on? Been a long time since I've actually bought tickets rather than getting them for free and just sitting wherever they are

Section 128 126 and 130 should be where the oilers shoot twice. Penalty box is section 101.

Yeah thanks I ended up finding a chart of it. Grabbed some seats in sec 134 row 7, so hopefully thats good enough to see the whole ice and still get a good close up of McD and Drai in the offensive zone.

 

[Hockey Nightmare]

Why would either of them, especially Nurse, not qualify?

Drai is technically not a rookie, he played too many games last year. He's no longer eligible for the Calder.

Anyone know what the rookies roster is actually going to be yet? Anything official?

[Up the Irons]
