I will be at the game. Getting tickets tomorrow and going with 3 of my brothers. This is going to be an experience. I will post my experience and pictures when I get back. Might be heading to the Hockey Hall of Fame the next day as well.

Looks like the NHL's really going for those coveted 'major markets' with this one

Cool, im glad this went through. I would very much like to see pics and hear about it Tim; your lucky to be going.

This absolutely sucks. I went online to buy tickets at 1015 and the game was sold out. I called the Pens box office and they told me the tickets sold out at 1006 am. The Sabres/NHL really screwed this up. They allowed unlimited tickets to be purchased. The scalpers went nuts.

As of right now, I'm not going but hopefully, within a few weeks, ticket prices will drop quite a bit.

I should be going too, I'm going on a massive hockey road trip and should get Press passes to this game
