Well, apparently they aren't going down without a fight

As if he's been reading these threads, Clode inserts Kessel on Savard's line
Kessel promptly rewards him with a goal

After all the "should've been a goal"s the Bruins have had (including one at the end of the first period tonight), Price hands them the go ahead goal in the 3rd with a Roy-esque blunder.

No sooner than Jack Edwards announces that tickets are still available for Saturday night's game, I'm online with my credit card

Unfortunately, they must mean available only for Canadien's fans Evil or Very Mad
300 searches produces 3 scattered seats in different club sections @ $175 each
Uh, 5 minutes after they go on sale, every seat is sold?
Nice of Ticketmaster to send me a Gold Member's E-Mail 10 minutes ago alerting me that "Tickets are now on sale for Game 6!!!"
Yeah right assholes

Give me a break...are you serious? I gotta say we are all one step ahead of old Claude.

Well, now there are NO seats available...from Ticketmaster

I DID find seats however....the online scalpers have snatched them all up Mad
If you want to pay $130 bucks online for last row corner balcony, and risk the tickets being fake, be my guest.
One site was selling balcony seats for $470, and club seats for only $250 Confused

Man, there were so many sites, and each one had at least a hundred seats for sale ... now we know why there seemed to be so many Canadiens fans there
If the scalpers snatch then up that quick, what chance do we stand?

This is a huge problem everywhere. For obvious sellouts they need to go to a max 4 per person system, or do a lottery, or something...

Ticketmaster is max 8 per person, but that didn't stop them

I don't think 8 is too high, I don't think scalpers are buying 8 at a time
I think they're buying entire sections at a time, which is the problem
The Saturday night pickup group I sometimes skate with has an annual Bruins outing, so that's like 20 people give or take

I think the scalpers are buying sections of seats directly from the ticket office, and kicking something back to the office.
The Garden looked packed tonight, so apparently a lot of people paid the scalpers price for those seats ( or they were bogus tickets, and the game was legitimately sold out)

Maybe the scalpers refused to sell to Hab fans then Laughing , because that was by far the biggest pro-Bruin crowd we've seen at the Garden all series...

or the Bell Center for that matter Laughing
