Nope

Taking the whole history of the NHL, I still don't see how he's above any of the players I listed........yet

Afternoon sports fans.
The Crofts clan are in New York for Christmas and I quite fancy a family trip to MSG to see the Rangers play Toronto on 23 December.
I am aware that NHL tickets are in the 'lumpy' category and add in the fact this is New York and I'm looking at the thin end of $700 plus fees for a family of 4 without so much as a freezing cold tasteless beer served in my seat or a wiener in a stale bun.

Not having been to an NHL game since about 2004 (Caps v Panthers) should I.......

a: bite the bullet you can't buy tickets on the day and they don't reduce the price anyhow.

b: wait and buy on the door at a greatly reduced price.

c: use this amazing website where fans resell unwanted tickets at less than face value.

Thanks

Is going to see the NY Islanders an option?  I'd guess the Rangers sell-out most matches well in advance but the Islanders would be less expensive and not all that hard to get too now they're in Brooklyn.  What's the cheap seats site? Stub Hub or Seat Geek.

That's not a bad shout, NHL seat exchange has tickets starting at $47 for the Islanders game v Winnipeg on 23 December, quite honestly I don't care if the Winnipeg Wankeroos & the Brooklyn Islanders both suck ass big time, it's the occasion and all that.  The Caps game I went to had it all and they sucked ass, we had a full on fist fight on the ice after 5 minutes and the game ended in a shoot out 1 on 1 whatever that's called, marvellous. Cheers for the suggestion I'd forgotten all about the Islanders and wasn't prepared to go to New Joyzee for the Devils.

I'd go for the Brooklyn option if it's cheaper. Now that the Islanders play at the Barclays Center, their games are a lot easier to get to

Cardiff's European campaign got off to a very bad start, losing 10-1 to the creator of the Daleks

We went to Islanders v Winnipeg Jets on Saturday, Islanders won 5-2 in quite an entertaining game, Jets having by far more shots on goal and far more puck possession but failing to capitalise, sound familiar?

Barzal scored his first hat trick & Jaro Halak saved the Islanders on several occasions between the sticks.

First period was over an hour, stop start but the next 2 periods flowed end to end and was really entertaining, could I watch it every week? Not a chance.
