First Game Today

[shropshirebear]

Followed hockey for years (mainly NHL, been Toronto for 10 days to watch Leafs)

Started following Panthers this season and game over from Telford with my girlfriend and her lad to our first game.

Loved it, arena is amazing. Result was disappointing but hey ho.

We were in block 11, couple of questions.

Do Panthers sell half season tickets?

Was the atmosphere quieter today than normal? I'm guessing a Sunday afternoon against a basement team contributed to that?

No mid-season ticket sales I'm afraid. You'll have to be a 'walk-up - pay on the door' now for the rest of the season.

Due to Ice Hockey in Nottingham now being an 'entertainment' rather than a sport (whereas you strive to win a league title) I am going the other way. Been there, bought the T-shirt etc over the years since 1980, but don't attend games now. So your second question will have to be answered by someone else who was there, though they may be drowning sorrows just now due to the Panthers usual 'shoot foot' result tonight.

You ought to also pen this in the 'game thread'.

Okay great thanks.

Will drop it in the game thread!

Yeah, a bit quieter than normal. Too many Sunday and mid week fixtures this year.

If anything save some money and get play off tickets, great atmosphere and a full arena.

Or, come to Vojens for the Continental Cup final weekend 🍻🍻
