[Ice]

I wasn't sure where to start this being mildly hockey related so I started it here.

I just purchased my passport last week since its now required for air travel in to Canada.

I'm trying to plan a trip to Calgary for the first round of the playoffs. I have never been to Alberta, I'm seeking advice of where to stay reasonably close to the Saddledome. Also, how likely it is I could purchase playoff tickets since I assume those games sell out pretty quickly and I'm geographically inconvenient for a box office camp out? Depending on the Flames' first round opponent my goal is to go to every game in that round.

Any help is greatly appreciated.
