Looking for Flames @ Oilers tickets... how can I get them??

[DMac]

I am looking for tickets for the Flames @ Oilers on Feb. 21.

I was hoping someone knew a good way to get a pair or two of tickets for this game in Edmonton?
Ticketmaster is 'sold out'
Is there an equivalent of the Sportchek zone/Co-op tickets where I can line up and get tickets?
Or is there an equivalent of the CalgaryPuck buy and sell on an Oilers site??

I checked StubHub, and the prices are just out of my range as I am a student. And Craigslist is pretty dry. So is Ebay.

Thanks for any help from anyone who has experience with getting tickets up north.

oilfans.com has a ticket selling forum...but it's pretty slow. try kijiji.ca I managed to buy some off there this morning, not the cheapest but I got a pair in the 2nd level for $200.

Thanks,

I have been watching Kijiji too. The real killer for us is that we need 3 tickets.

Are the Standing Room tickets "Rush" or is it assigned?

I did too.Normally I don't buy tickets from such sites but I really wanted to go for my birthday. I'm just a little worried that they are fake (hopefully they aren't). They sent me the tickets via email. I feel like calling up ticketmaster and asking if the order number is valid prior to me driving all the way up to Edmonton and incurring the hotel cost. Can you do that?

Standing room are assigned as far as I know.

3 tickets are definitely going to be a tough find.

In the future the Oilers have 3-game mini packs that usually includes a battle of Alberta game. The bad thing is you have to buy 3 games, but the other 2 games are pretty easy to sell off to Coiler fans. That's how I got my tickets to the last game of the year. Those usually go on sale just before and just after Christmas, and I think during the preseason. Too late for that this year, but good for next season!

Yeah they went on sale if Feb for the Oil game in YEG. I'm organizing a trip with friends if anyone is interested, and if there is any room left. Cost will be about appx. $220 per person including ticket here (sport check) and a ticket there (300 section), including trip there and back in a 15 passenger van a hotel room or two and all the money left over will be donated to the drinking fund for the weekend. Required are .... willing to body paint, no couples (its a boys trip), leave Friday around noonish. If someone is interested i can fwd facebook page set-up. As i said only if there is room left.
