Here are the games I plan on attending next season. I think its a pretty good lineup, tried to space it out a bit as seeing 3 hockey games in one week is a little much. Should be lots of fun, see you at the games.

There was a 7 games in 11 day stretch of home games last yr and got pretty hectic most we have now is a 5/8 strech
Ill probably end up going to them all again cant really find a reason not too go lol
Vancouver @ Winnipeg, is a 10pm game?? Damn it PST'ers!!!
I like how the Flames are coming here next season. I will try to be at that game with some of my Calgary buddies.
I'm going to try to get tickets for the Mar 26 game @ MTL, since I'll miss the Nov 8 one...would love to rep Jets gear in the Bell Centre.
Is it just me or does it seem we've got longer "away" stretches than I recall last season? November is going to be a very important month for points in terms of away games.
I'm going to try to get as many games as I can, but I'll be lucky to go to more than one or two games in Winnipeg. Tickets go quick there.
My thoughts exactly, will probably end up going to the Canes games in November and March. It's a 6 hour drive to Raleigh as oppsed to a 4 hour drive to Nashville.
Sweet! I thought they might have one late start on HNIC and call it "midnight madness". Keep the kids away from that Saturday night game!
At first glance, looks like more afternoon games (17 of them!!! That's a ton), I like the 7pm local starts since I'm usually in bed by 10:30 EST so less staying up late, and their western trip has 2 early starts. Seems to be more back-to-backs as well. Interesting we face Pitts 3 times in 2 weeks in Dec, all on back-to-backs. We also have a couple home back-to-backs (had 1 last year). Also 2 afternoon games on US holidays which will suck for the working crowd.

Games are pretty fun in Raleigh. Not as big of a party as Nashville of course...
I'll probably catch a game there this year but I'm thinking I might want to go to an arena I haven't been to yet as well. Maybe catching a game in DC would be fun. I think I'll have to break down and get a Jets jersey to wear though.
Edit: I think I'll try and make the Nov 25th game in Raleigh and the February 2nd game in Sunrise. I may as well take advantage of the SE division games while they last. Don't really care about seeing a game in DC after all. I'll skip a trip that far north this season and try and catch a pair of games in NY/NJ the season after. I haven't seen a game in MSG since the mid-nineties. Also open to road-trip dates if a big group decides to catch a game somewhere again this season.

Uhhh Houston, we have a problem. Home opener Sat Oct 13 @ 2pm. Stamps @ Blue Bombers at CanadaInns at 12pm. Me thinks the BB game will get moved. Let's see who wins between TSN and CBC.
Get your PVRs ready for -
Fri Oct 19
Jets @ Caps
Bombers @ Argos
No other Bomber/Jet conflicts (play same day Oct 27 and Nov 3 but split times - and of course playoffs/Grey Cup days will also feature a Jets game )
LMAO to funny. Just started reading their board....a little sensitive they are
Ha, whatever happened to being "Minnesota nice"? They're supposed to just smile and nod when we refer to them as Minny. And when we tell them how excited we are to catch a Wild game in Minneapolis. And how we just love their shopping malls when the dollar is at par.

lol. I would of liked to catch a game down there for sure!! Meh a few friends of mine live in Minneapolis/st.paul and they refer to it as Minni. Never thought twice about it. But I respect the fact that some of the posters got upset, I just find it a little sensitive.
the great thing for me is I live 10 minutes from mailing depots accross the border so only online shopping for this guy! Free shipping and usually 1/2 the price for auto parts
I seen NO JETS @ WILD GAME for this new schedule for regular season games! NO! I thought they would be a great rivalry. I heard the Jets were in the Southeastern division last year and they would change after their first year.
Hmmmmm I'm not a huge fan of the 7pm start times....prefer 7:30 as that extra 30 min goes a long way into not feeling so rushed....Oh well they better turn off the speed cameras on game day

It's still there. Congrats on getting a team back Winnipeg. I'm sorry that team does not visit their neighbors in St. Paul in 2012-2013.

Honestly in two separate stints of living in the Twin Cities I have never heard anyone refer to either Minneapolis or Minnesota as "Minni."
