PhillipBlunt Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 The Seattle Sasquatchs? The Seattle Soul Patches? The Seattle Sequoias? The Seattle Seagulls? Okay now I'm just taking the piss. Although looking at the other three, I seem to have been the entire time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goalie13 Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Man. If that season ticket drive is any indication, that is going to be one tough ticket to get. It will probably still be cheaper to fly to Arizona for a game. After how quick they sold out, I wonder if there are any remaining roadblocks for Seattle?

What just happened in Seattle is nuts. Can't wait for a Seahawks Kraken sports trip. I mean why not turn a $1000 trip into a $1500 one? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bettman's "not so cryptic" quote from the other day was "Seattle season ticket drive will speak for itself". It's all but a done deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell, the west coast is killer all the way down to California. I could probably extend that all the way down to Southern Chile, but I haven't been to all those places yet. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Super stoked for you to get a team there. It's going to be a great rivalry, and I can't see the fan support being anything less than strong. Hell, I'm a Canucks fan and I'll be going to games there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I talked about this today during our company meeting to go put a deposit down, and then I saw the results, and walked around the office showing the results! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nucker 67 Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 So, I'm guessing Seattle will assemble a very good team (similar to VGK). Is this fan base prepared to see the new team down south excel while we continue to spin our wheels? Hopefully by then the Canucks will have turned the corner on their rebuild and can be competitive. Looking forward to the new rivalry. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mentioned in the our season ticket holder thread. That Vancouver currently has about 12,000 season tickets. 27,000 is a sell out and a 10,000 waitlist. Deposits are not cheap either, works out to $1028 US for a pair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So that is 20 thousand something? Hopefully something magical will happen that I will have a season ticket, if the arena is like 18,000 something seats.
