I am getting excited since the hockey season is coming soon. Even though I am not a season ticket holder for Canucks, I would like to see few games this year. What is the best way to get the tickets?

this site, craigslist, business relationships, brokers, scalpers, ticketmaster in that order.....there is a wide range of tickets prices, and for single game pricing, ticketmaster adds a HUGE premium compared to my season ticket price. Decide where you like to sit and be patient...if you only see a few games, then perhaps you don't want to experience those few games in the corner nosebleeds.

I got few tickets last year from craiglist. Even though they were great tickets, I was always afraid that these tickets might be fake. Whenever, I checked ticketmaster, I wasn't impressed with the choice of the seats. Thanks for the advice.

Stubhub charges so much extra than ticketmasters. I bought clubseat level row 3 ticket from ticketmaster at$250 while the same ticket at stubhub is around$350 to 400 per ticket. I might use stubhub if I have to though. Thanks for suggestions.

talk to the scalpers at the stadium, if your okay with it wait till the game starts and you can get some really good deals.

Once halfway through the first i bought front row tickets for 25 bucks a piece

I've done that before and one time i seen a scalper sell this guy fake tickets. This person was running around trying to find the scalper.

Speaking of tickets, [looking ahead] what is the best source for playoff tix?
Do the Canucks sell them online in April?

Craigslist is pretty safe. You just need to grab the tix from the buyer's home.
Make sure you bring a buddy, too many psychos online.
Check their ID and look at the tickets carefully. Seasons ticket holders are the best.
Ask them to show you the season ticket booklet.
Chances are the guy's not going to sell you a bogus ticket when you know where he lives.
The best prices are during game day. Last minute tickets are always hard to sell when plans change.

I have season tickets, I sell almost all the tickets I can't use on craigslist.
I think most tickets there are fine.

But the best way would be to sell the tickets, then the season ticket holder email the tickets to someone else.
Which cancels the actual paper ticket. So you can't tell if the tickets are bad, since it is the actual ticket.

So I think the safest way is to buy off craigslist and have the tickets emailed to you, then you know they are legit.

I use stubhub only. 100% money back guarantee and most NHL tickets are cheaper than face value unless its hot NHL markets.

Next time look for a guy named Tom, old guy usually wearing a Canucks Jersey..... or Stu, he works for showtime tickets

I put an ad on the craiglist for the Canucks tickets. Then I got 3 different replies selling the tickets at the exactly same location. So I bought the tickets from the stubhub instead even though it was more expensive. I just want to be safe

So I got the tickets through the stubhub and had pretty good experience even though I had to pay 50% more than face value. Since Canucks are playing well, it's getting hard to get good tickets.
