Watched the first game yesterday against the Canucks. Even though it was a bunch of prospects and fringe players on both sides I enjoyed it. Jersey's are awesome as well.

Re: I like this team!
Any one interested in taking in a game? I am definitely going to see one this season.
Looks like March 2018 might be the best bet.

I'd love to. Vegas isn't in the budget for this season for now, but you never know when a good deal might pop up.

Re: I like this team!
never mind these tickets are a ripoff. $55 obstructed........$75 nose bleed........$200 club. And to think I was just bitching about $90 club level tickets for the Avs Homeopener against Boston!

I looked into it as we will be heading through there next month but I think until the novelty wears off and the Suck begins, tickets will be a holy ripoff... So maybe in the spring...harmfuljays wrote:never mind these tickets are a ripoff. $55 obstructed........$75 nose bleed........$200 club.

Maybe they'll sell them at the day-off show discount kiosk. Only way to buy in Vegas. (Saw a Holly Madison topless show for $40 bucks.)

Re: I like this team!
Listening to Gerard Gallant talk, I cannot pin down his accent. It almost sounds like a cross between English and Canadian. I looked him up and apparently he's from PEI. Is that how they talk?
Re: I like this team!
The trouble is that people in Vegas get so shitfaced on free booze that many will pay these prices to see a game this year, just to say they saw a game in the inaugural season. I think prices will stay high this year, and unless they make the playoffs (still doubt it), prices will probably come down a bit into next year when the team realizes this year was a fluke both in the standings and the stands.

No surprise, Shippy gets suspended after leaving the Chicago Wolves, presumably on his way back to the KHL. Lame.

The Sweet Golden Knights haven't fallen off yet; they're second in the division!
William Karlsson, who I always thought was too good for the Jax to give away, is nearly PPG in LV, as is supposed one-year wonder Marchessault.

I'm regretting having doubted them making the playoffs. They look to be well on their way. (Cue the collapse now that I said that)

I hit the "Unread Posts" link and "I like this team!" and "Fuck this team" were the top two entries.

McKenzie reporting that Marchessault is about to cash in (no pun intended). Hard to believe three other organizations gave him away for nearly nothing (and in the case of Tampa, literally nothing).
