I could be wrong however but I believe they started filming in training camp. Also if they started filming December 1st, that really doesn't give much of a time frame to get all the episodes together after filming everything.

I could be wrong though.
That's probably for the previews of the show because last year the show was filmed just about days before the episodes premiered.

They did film for that day or two but they won't be back until Dec 1st. I imagine that day or two they filmed will be the beginning of the show.

Wouldn't it be weird if they started filming before the game was officially announced?

Basically why Gary Bettman referred to the game when it was announced as "the worst kept secret in sports."

Was just on a flyers board (not the one here). Guy is a Flyers STH, was able to get tickets. Paid $40.25 in fees for each ticket for the game. $16 in fees per ticket for the Alumni game, and $3 in fees per ticket for the AHL game. Yeah, $40.25 service charge for the winter classic game. Ridiculous.

So now we know, it's not going to be a lottery - it's going to be first come first served based on number of years as a season ticket holder. Guess that means recent accounts have almost no chance at decent seats. Bummer!

As a season ticket holder for 2 fulls years and a half season holder for a third year, I guess my chances of getting seats are slim to none

I've given up hope of going to the WC. Not even a full STH so no shot I'll get a decent price. If anyone can get 2 or 4 tix to the alumni game, please let me know. I'd be stoked just to go to that.

Well I guess I'll find out if 17 years tenure is worth anything.

Stunning to me is only 2 per account. I only have 2 so I'm cool but I know people with many more. That's not going to sit well with many long time STHs.

i deff have no shot. this is my first year. if any1 is kind enough if they do get a call from a rep offering tix and have no intention on going if we can work something out id gladly owe a favor. really would like to go with a friend but im 99 percent sure i wont be offered tickets. im sure every1 that does get a call is gonna go anyway but figured it would be worth a shot and obviously would be greatly appreciated. otherwise im not even going to bother paying stubhub ticket prices at that price my 42 inch hd will be the better option.

I spoke to my rep. today and he told me that they decided to go with 2 seats per account because they think they can accomadate almost everyone. They anticipate based on a variety of reasons(age of STH,Weather,Price mainly Price that a third to a quarter will decline. Also there are several big accounts that will only get 2 seats offered. I am in my 5th year and he said it should almost be guaranteed to get offered seats. He also told me that there goal is to offer everyone seats. According to his figures it all depends on how many senoir STH,s turn them down.

Is it true that if you buy the WC tickets, you won't get a chance to buy legend game ones until everyone else has had?

I am friends with my former Rep. who has moved up into the promotions dept. So the info he gives me is usually right on. I have made it a habit since my Brother had season tickets over 10 years ago to take my rep. out for dinner or drinks just to get to know him . I have had a few reps over the years and most of them are young and just starting out and really appreciate $100 night out. I find it hard to believe that STH,s are willing to spend thousands on tickets but are not willing to take your rep. out for dinner or at least a $100 gift card during the Holidays. It goes a long way.

The Ranger bend us over backwards for money on Season Tickets and you expect me to pan out another 100 bucks a year on my rep? Not going to happen

My rep changed anyway this year. Not happy, i liked Steph Now I got Mandy, don't know anything about her yet, though she answers e-mails fast so that a good start.
