But, you're tickets are good to the Hitman game tomorrow. Didn't you read your fine print? Your ticket says it is good for entry to a hockey game, not necessarily on the day and time that you chose. We will give you a $20 coupon off your next year's ticket for your inconvenience though."

Nice one. I had this same exact problem when we were going to SJ for the first round in April. We got bumped off our flight because it was overbooked. We were supposed to arrive in SF at 10am, but instead walked into the HP Pavillion right at puck drop. We only made it in time because I drove like Mario Andretti from the SF Airport. Then they sent me $100 coupon AFTER we filed a complaint. uhh.. right, what am I supposed to do with this coupon? It's useless to me, I am never going to fly United again. Westjet and Cathy Pacific are the only airlines I have flew that I have nothing to complain about.
