I assume the Canucks opener will not be a sellout?

That have talked about this on the radio, and it sounds like there are indeed a lot of tickets available for tonight's game.

Doubt it. Have not heard any anticipation for the season around the city.
I bet most people don't even realize it starts today.
But I'll be there!

Can't remember the last time I was this excited about the team going into a season opener. By far the deepest forward group the flames have put together, probably since their glory years. And with ]Valimaki cracking the starting lineup, probably the deepest bottom half of the defense in that time too.

Still some question marks about Smith's overall level of play and durability, but nonetheless I'm having to stamp down my expectations that this will be a huge year for the team.

Should be a win for sure. The Nucks look like the worst team in the league on paper.



No excuses to suck on this one.

Dube said his parents and billet 'parents' are coming to the game tonight I believe.

Anyone hear if Valimaki has clan members flying in for his debut?

Does anyone know what time puck drop is? How long is this opening ceremony supposed to be?

I'm hoping Dube gets off the mark early. Get that first goal behind you and keep on rolling!

Flames dominate but lose. Smith looks rusty, Bennett takes OZone penalties, Brodie’s brain farts, Neal looks old slow and uninterested, coach makes questionable choices.....basically deja vu just to tease us.

They win the next game and never look back on their way to President’s trophy
