As the title states, does anyone know when they go on sale? I've looked around but i can't find an exact date or time, just that 1300 sportcheck zone will be released :/

its not 1300 sportcheck tickets... 1300 for general public and hothouse/hitman season ticket holders can get their hands on... Lottery on calgaryflames.com, co-op, and sportchek. Correct me if im wrong but i think only 200 go on sale from sport chek... line up early

It's 600 sportchek, 700 between online draw/CO-OP - both #s are for each game.

All the info you need regarding ticket distribution:

I'm not sure how tickets were sold during the last playoff run but I do remember that scam going down at Sport Chek locations where staff were buying tickets etc. Looks like they are trying to avoid ANY problems by making all sales based on a draw. No more lining up at Sport Chek and having to uppercut ppl to get tickets, just put your name in the draw at Sportchek/Co-op and wait for a reply. SportChek zone now has assigned seating too so ppl aren't going to fight to get the best seats. Again, I don't know if this lottery system was already in place last time, all I can remember is ppl getting pissed because they waited in line and didn't get any.

i think they intro'd it last year, or the year before that. But definately good idea.
