Preseason Hockey

[OnAFly]

Anyone know if they'll be televising the Wild preseason games?

The only one last year was against Detroit and that was because Detroit televised it. I sure could go for some hockey right about now!

I'm with ya' man. Not sure if it's gonna be televised but hearing Petr Sykora is in town is getting me all fired up! Bring on Hockey Season! Looking forward to seeing the new changes in action.

Hard to believe but the Wild play their first game tonight I believe. type in wild vs st louis into google. Some of the results refer to streaming the game. Maybe one of the sites will stream it once it starts? MAYBE???? It's at least worth a shot, I'm currently looking for something promising!

Wild lost 3-1. But we also played mostly our minor league players.

Yeah, preseason games aren't usually the prettiest, but hey it's hockey and after a 4 month stretch without it, I'll take whatever I can get.

Too bad they want full price for those preseason tickets or I'd consider buying some.

I'm pretty pumped about Sykora too. Hopefully he doesn't become a defensive liability since he's not the fastest skater on the ice. As long as he keeps up that 20+ goals/season avg, I'm happy

Amen brother. What is he 37 now? I can't believe they are charging full price for pre-season. Come on now.

its too bad they couldn't give everyone a break and sell the tickets at 1/2 to 3/4 the normal price. Thing is they should still sell a lot of tickets anyways. Not much going on Thursday night when they play at home. Busy weekend of sports for many people with high school football, twins, gophers fb, and vikings though.

Same as the NFL I guess charging full price for Preseason. Does anyone know if the season ticket holders also have to pay for the preseason ones as well as part of the game package?

[JimBuck]

Yeah, we've got season tickets and they still make you pay for preseason on top of regular season games....pretty lame when your ponying up the big bucks for an entire season.

They won 2-0 tonight. Boy they really opened up the offense. Shots were 25-20 CBJ. Clutterbuck scored both goals, Backstrom and Harding split the shutout.
