Nice!!! That's definitely good news for you and your city, maybe you will even be able to attend a game or two.

I will definitely attend a few of the games. the Penguins already sent an email confirming that season ticket holders will be offered tickets

It'll be interesting to see how attendance is in Philly.

We have alot of good high school teams, but no great college teams. Minor league hockey does well around here, so that's probably a good sign...

My hometown is hosting the 2011 and 2012 Canadian University championships. But I would rather see yours :lol:

even though it's 3 years away I am pretty excited to the Frozen Four in person. I try to watch it every year on TV but it will be cool watching it in person.

I would think the attendance in Philly will be strong. the AHL and NHL teams both have no problem selling out so I don't think this will be any different.
