The 2017 outdoor WHL game during the Memorial Cup actually got cancelled due to low ticket sales but Regina has had sellouts for most other major one-off stadium events.
I would expect this to be a sellout, especially since many people will travel from all four directions - AB, MB, Saskatoon and other northern points and maybe even some American hockey fans from the Dakotas, Montana and Minnesota - but will be interesting to see what the re-sale market is like.
Having it in late October is a big bonus - weather could go either way at that time of year but hopefully will be nice sunny fall day instead of blowing, cold winter day.
