The only possible hurdle is the league itself has set a cap at 12K. It’s expected to increase for round 2, at the same time with more and more cities opening up could see the NHL dropping that too. Just can’t see the league telling Jacobs he can’t sell tickets.

They are not. They sent out to ticket holders that everything is going to smartphones
Ugh so where not getting our seats
This only says near full capacity, not sure if Ladyfan and I have any chance at our regular seats, probably still too close to the team
Actually, the fine print in this notice says sections near the benches will still be blocked

Yup, sadly, your seats are just too good
. I remember hearing something during the CAR/NSH series about a 12,000 or 14,000 capacity cap set by the NHL...but it was DVRed from a few days ago, so it might have been out of date.I hope they're fair. It seems AWFULLY fast to be selling the expanded capacity tickets tomorrow, especially since last time around was less than optimal.

I don't understand why thy could not cancel previous sales and assign everyone their ST location. And the wording of the announcement suggests that for Rounds 3 and 4 it will be another priority access sale instead of getting your own seats.
I am guessing is that because they gave STH access to purchase R1 and R2 a few weeks ago when it was 25%, they want to round out the selling of seats and with the email I got, they said in a week we would know the situation for R3 and R4, I'm guessing we will go back to our seats since it will be a clean slate. I'd really hope they don't make us go through the charade of time slots, promocodes and taking time away from work and praying ticketmaster doesn't go down. The only issue I see is not everyone is comfortable returning so they need to send out an email saying are you opting in or out of 3 and 4 so they know if they need to charge the card and know which STH seats can go on sale to the public. Also, why are tickets going on sale today when the earliest we are back at the Garden is early June. Again, seems really rushed. I'd think the seats I bought for round 2 are still valid? You wouldn't think I'd get another email about buying tickets where I already have them but I didn't think they would filter through which accounts had them and which didn't
Mine are still in account manager but if its full capacity then I shouldn't need 2 where I am a single seat STH. Again, why is this so rushed? I hope there is a more detailed email. The email does say "new opportunity" to purchase so I'm guessing its for those who got nothing 2 weeks ago. I also think Baker opening up the Garden later this week caught them by surprise. I dont think they anticipated going from 12% 25% to 100 all in a months time

My round 2 seats are all in the ballpark of my regular seats
my daughter got them she’s a wiz on this stuff but she’s at work and I’m assuming I either keep the 4 games I got or they give me my actual seats and the ones I bought go to who owned them
It’s crazy but the seats I had against Washington are in my row and belong to one of my friends
they went on at 10 couldn’t get and ended up other end about row 17
nuts

I don’t why they just can’t get everyone their regular tickets UNLESS they can’t do it because they don’t have actual credit card information
this could make rounds 3 and 4 insane
I got in at 11 and got everything with no problem. Friend of mine went in at noon and got everything. I think everything went to hell in the 1pm time slot. I agree with Dan, void the round 2 purchases and put us where we belong unless theyre blocked off due to NHL protocols then put them in comproble seats. I do think the plan for 3 and 4 is our own seats with a clean slate and they said we would know the deal for that in a week

My example may answer your questions
I have 2 tickets in my row but 4 seats to the left of my actual seats
these won’t change at all
I now have option to buy 2 more for total of 4
However all the loge people (not balcony) who were shut out basically 1 pm on up will have ability to buy my seats before I get a crack again
I sit in loge so the first group of loge will go on and can buy
Goes same for balcony
after they all get a chance I go back in and can buy if any left
Rounds 3 snd 4 hope is or plan is we are all in our regular seats and pay as you play
if Islanders win in 6 first game likely Saturday

Same boat here. But I also never got an email back from my rep about the debacle for the Round 1 / Round 2 sale that I never did get to take part in - and I think it's the first time he's failed to respond.
EDIT: Ultra fast response, and he said emails will be going out later today. TBH, what's the rush in having a sale today? The earliest they could POSSIBLY play is Friday, and Sunday is more likely.
