MN Wild tickets still available for the Minnesota Wild New Years Eve Game

Every Year the Minnesota Wild New Years Eve game seems to be one of the best of the season. We win some, we lose some, there is almost always a fight and Minnesota Wild Fans seem to be at their craziest on December 31st.

With that said, it is one of my favorite Wild Games to go to year after year... who cares about black-tie parties, champagne, or balls dropping when you can be inside the Xcel Energy Center in green and red cheering the Minnesota Wild onto victory.

This New Years Eve the Minnesota Wild play the LA Kings. As of this morning when I checked with my ticket insiders there were still MN Wild Tickets left, however... this game is historically a sell out or near sell out. This year is likely to be close to a packed house, the MN Wild have been skating pretty well and with New Years Eve on a Thursday, lots of people have Friday off of work making an extra long weekend and giving no excuse to take some time for yourself and go to a game.

If you plan on going to the MN Wild LA Kings New Years Eve game, Buy your Minnesota Wild Tickets now!

Looking for an Easy Gift Idea? MN Wild Tickets make great gifts!

Mall's are horrible this time of year, they are overcrowded, hot, loud and full of stressed shoppers looking for the perfect gift for the person who is impossible to shop for. I propose that this year, instead of going to the mall and stressing yourself out and thusly coming home to stress out the person you were out buying a holiday gift for, why not skip the whole thing?

Not the gifts part, but the mall shopping part. I propose that you instead go online and order Minnesota Wild Tickets. Benefits to this
1) Online shopping for MN Wild Tickets can be done from the comfort of the couch
2) EVERYONE loves Wild Tickets
3) Wild Tickets are easy to wrap
4) NO mall Santa to avoid....

All in all, it seems to me that shopping for Wild Tickets puts the Cheer back in Holiday Cheer.

Black Friday Wild Tickets are a hot buy

With Thanksgiving just a day away, most people are thinking about stuffing their faces with turkey, stuffing and pumpkin pie. I would like to suggest adding one more thing to your plate, MN Wild Tickets for the Wild-Avalanche Game on Friday.

Black Friday has traditionally been about two things. First, recovery from the large Turkey Coma I eat myself into on Thanksgiving and Second, snatching up all of the hot deals that stores offer on the biggest retail "holiday" of the year.

This year I will be adding one more thing to my 11/27 To-Do List... attend the MN Wild, Colorado Avalanche Game at the Xcel Energy Center. My guess is this game is going to be huge. Not only are people ready for a break from their families, everyone loves a rivalry game and there isn't a more fierce competition than the Wild vs. Avalanche! Get your Wild Tickets today, nothing chases a Turkey Coma better than nachos from the X!

MN Wild Tickets have recession friendly prices

The MN Wild have had a decent season and it is still early on, but it is slightly surprising to me that Wild Tickets have not gone up in price yet. Typically, after the first month of the Minnesota Wild Season MN Wild Tickets go up in price. Yet, this season there are still lots of great Cheap Wild tickets for most of the home games.

Rivalry games, like the Wild vs. Avalanche game, have higher demand and therefore will likely have higher ticket prices. No matter who the MN Wild are taking on, it is definitely best to buy Wild tickets early... if the MN Wild go on a winning spree Wild Ticket Prices will rise.

This Holiday Season, MN Wild Tickets are one of the most recession friendly ticket buys in Twin Cities sports. Don't miss you chance to take advantage of the MN Wild Ticket deals!

Local Ticket Site has Cheap Wild Tickets

I just got an email from Ticket King, a local ticket brokerage for those of you who don't know, advertising their cheap Minnesota Wild Tickets. They have tickets starting at $25-30 for seats in the corner and ranging up to $120 that are on Center Ice (ok so these are cheap but they are great Wild Tickets!)

Ticket King is located just a block from the Xcel which makes picking up MN Wild Tickets from their St. Paul office, extremely convenient. The email said there was a limited amount of these cheap tickets and they expected them to move fast as the weekends games got closer. Don't miss your chance for $30 Wild Tickets, that is unheard of!

MN Wild Tickets still at best prices of the season

The Minnesota Wild are off to a relatively strong start, beating long-time rivals the Colorado Avalanche last night 3-2 and defeating the Anaheim Ducks 4-3. Although several losses fell in between these two victories, beating the Avalanche and the Ducks are two big "wins" in the minds of fair-weather fans.

What does this mean for MN Wild Tickets? Fans equate beating the Ducks and beating the Avalanche to having a good season, having a good season in the mind of fans means that Wild Tickets become a hotter buy, meaning ticket prices go up. How do you avoid paying inflated prices for Wild tickets? Buy MN Wild Tickets Today, seriously! Wild tickets are at the lowest price they will be at for the whole season, if you plan on going to games this season buy tickets now! Online ticket sites, like Ticket King have great deals on Wild Tickets for the time being, but as always ticket prices change quickly, don't miss out!

With a big Win at the Home Opener, Demand for MN Wild Tickets is sure to go up

Niklas Backstrom in the goal
Wild fans can be happy this week... after some pre-season bopples and questions about the "up-tempo" hockey that Todd Richards has implemented. The win against the Anaheim Ducks at the Wild Home Opener this week goes to show that the Wild are ready to play and buying tickets to thier games will not be a waste.... What does the Win really mean? Fair Weather fans are going to start showing up at more and more games, because lets face it, who doesn't want to be wearing the jersey of the winning team at the end of the night?


I did some looking this week just to see what Tuesday night did to Ticket Prices and it seems that they are holding fairly stable for the time being, but with a few more wins to our name. Minnesota Wild Tickets are sure to go up in price. Currently there are great deals on the next home game against the Colorado Avalanche. I found MN Wild Tickets in the 3rd row corner for $30 and great seats on the Goal Line in Row 7 for $40... Don't miss a chance to scoop up these great deals before they are gone. Go WILD!

Minnesota Wild Tickets available for Home Opener

The Minnesota Wild open the 2009-2010 season at the Xcel Energy Center on Tuesday October 6th at 7:30. This should be a big game, because lots of fans are going to want to come out and see if Todd Richards is really going to be able to do everything he has promised he can do for the MN Wild.

I did some looking yesterday and there are still some great tickets left for the Home Opener, but as the weekend approaches and more and more sports fans come to town for the big football match-ups that are happening (Vikings-Packers and Gophers-Badgers) I think that the MN Wild tickets are going to go fast. Several sites, including Ticket King have some great seats left, including seats by the face-off circle of $50 and seats just 4 rows from the ice for only $95... these seats won't last for long though, so buy early or you will be catching the game from your couch!

Thurdsay Night TV not your thing? Tickets still left for tonight's MN Wild Game

As I was driving to work today, I flipped through several afternoon radio stations all talking about the season premiere of Grey's Anatomy tonight and the buzzed excitement over the status of Izzie (go ahead and judge that I know that much).

For those of you who won't be on the edge of your couch seat waiting to see what the Dr.'s in the worlds most drama-filled hospital are doing, there is a Minnesota Wild game tonight at 7:00 against the St. Louis Blues. I talked to a friend at Ticket King earlier today and she told me that they still have great ticket deals left and that the Saint Paul office will be open until game tonight for those fans looking to grab tickets on their way to the Xcel Energy Center. If you are one of the many tuning into ABC tonight the Minnesota Wild will be back at the X on October 6th for a game against the Ducks.

Minnesota Wild Preseason Tickets

If you are looking for some affordable entertainment this fall, you should check out a Minnesota Wild Preseason Game. I found Minnesota Wild Tickets starting at just $10/Ticket for each of the three Minnesota Wild Preseason Games at the Xcel Energy Center. That is crazy cheap! Why not go to a Minnesota Wild Game for the same price that it costs to go see some lame movie. I will see you at the X! GO WILD!!!

Minnesota Wild Season Tickets

I didn't think I would ever see the day, but the Minnesota Wild is advertising that they still have Minnesota Wild Season Tickets for sale. It makes me wonder what happened to their "Waiting List" and whether they are going to be able to continue their continuous sell-out record. I think that the poor economy, the loss of Marian Gaborik and the inability of the Minnesota Wild to take the "next step" have all been part of the slower than usual Wild Season Ticket sales. I just hope that this isn't a sign of things to come because it wouldn't feel right to have empty seats at the Xcel Energy Center. I still prefer to buy a few of the choice Minnesota Wild games from Ticket King than shell out big money for a few Minnesota Wild Season Tickets. GO WILD!!!

Minnesota Wild Preseason Games are getting closer

It seems like it has been a while (in fact it has been a year) since there were Minnesota Wild games to put on my schedule. But with the State Fair coming to an end, hockey season is right around the corner.

The first MN Wild preseason game is September 15 against the Blues, then on September 18th and 20th the Wild play preseason games at home. Preseason games are some of my favorite, first because they the first chance to see the newest MN Wild roster but secondly because most of the time you can get great deals on MN Wild preseason tickets. With school just starting and everyones lives getting back on track from summer fun, preseason games often get overlooked by fair weather fans... leaving lots of seats for the die-hards.

I've seen tickets online for the preseason games starting as low as $28. Check out all the MN Wild Ticket deals before the prices go up!

NHL announces Top Player Lists and Wild roster members make the cut

In the past 2 weeks the NHL has released lists of the Top- 10 NHL players from Finland, Sweden, Russia, Canada, Czech Republic, Slovakia and the United States. I think the lists were an aim to boost revenue overall in the NHL, people like to come to see the "bests" at anything... and if one of the Top 10 players happens to be on your home team than how could you not go out and buy tickets to a game or two... smart marketing.

Weather it was a smart marketing ploy by the NHL or an altruistic ranking for bragging rights alone, the Minnesota Wild can be proud to claim members from the lists. The No. 1 Finnish Player was Mikko Koivu and the No. 3 spot on the list went to the Wild's Niklas Backstrom. On the Top-10 Czech players list, MN Wild free agent Martin Havlat was ranked No. 7. Two former Wild roster members: Marian Gaborick (an obvious choice) and Pavol Demitra both made the Slovakian list. With the Wild making such a good showing on "the lists" if my guess is right and this is all a way to hype ticket sales, I would suggest buying MN Wild Tickets early before there are none left!

Wild Home Opener falls on HUGE sports weekend

The MN Wild Home Opener is always one of the biggest games of the season, and subsequently one of the hardest to get good tickets to. This year will be no exception, in fact it may even be harder than usual considering the sports scheduling phenomenon that occurred. All 4 of the big Fall sports teams in Minnesota are playing big games at home starting the weekend preceding the Wild's Home Opener, my prediction is that several will make it a long weekend in the Twin Cities and buy tickets to multiple events and turn the first weekend in October into a mini-vacation.

The Sports madness kicks off with the University of Minnesota Golden Gophers football team taking on rivals the Wisconsin Badgers at the new TCF Bank Stadium on Saturday October 3rd, then the Twins play their last home game in the Metrodome (ever) on Sunday October 4th, then Monday the Vikings take on the Green Bay Packers and to round off the "weekend" the Wild play their home opener against the Ducks on Tuesday October 6th.

I know that there are still Wild Tickets out there for the home opener, but if my prediction is right and people decide to make the weekend a fall break the seats won't last, so I would Buy your home opener tickets soon!

2009-2010 Minnesota Wild Schedule Announced

Yesterday the 2009-2010 Minnesota Wild Schedule was announced. MN Wild tickets immediately went on sale and many local ticket brokers are already posting Wild tickets on their websites.

The Wild Schedule will be an interesting one, with the home opener being played against the Anaheim Ducks on Tuesday October 6 at 8:00. The Wild will also meet the Colorado Avalanche at home early in the season and will play the New York Rangers, the Vancouver Canucks and the Dallas Stars all at home almost consecutively about a month into the season.

New Wild Head Coach Todd Richards has promised several changes to how the Wild play hockey and seems to be holding true to his promise with changes in the roster and a new approach to play-making. Wild fans will be out in hoards early to get a look at all of the new players and the new coach, so if you were asking my advice I would suggest buying Minnesota Wild Tickets early before they sell out or the prices go up.

Gaborik Goes and Ticket Prices?

It has been quite the last few days in NHL news. The Draft last week shook teams up and re-arranged a thing or two. On the home front, Marian Gaborik's contract with the Minnesota Wild ran-out yesterday and he went into Free Agency, signing with the New York Rangers. Emotions about this loss seem to be very mixed. Some say that we should have held onto Gaborik that he was "the Wild" and as our star player we shouldn't have let him go even if he isn't healthy enough to play. This argument bases itself on Gaborik's name recognition, that even though he wasn't performing like he used to, the fans that aren't really hard-core associate Wild Hockey with him and losing him means we may lose some of those ticket sales.


However, the opposing argument says that getting rid of Gaborik even if we didn't trade him off was the best thing the Wild could do for ticket sales. By having the cap space that he took up to offer to other players, the Wild now has a real shot and cleaning up the roster and getting a team that is competitive. This argument also says that the "fair-weather" fans will come to games regardless because if they aren't glomming on to Gaborik they will find the someone else to turn into the "new-hot-Wild-player" and all will be good.


Either way, tickets are going to start to move as the season quickly approaches and one thing is for sure, when the Wild plays the Rangers there will be interesting things to be said when Gaborik's name gets called.

Could the draft make tickets more appealing?

The NHL draft is this Friday and although the MN Wild has the number 12 draft pick for the first round Wild fans are looking for some big changes on the roster. New Head Coach Todd Richards promised that he was going to drastically alter Wild Hockey, opting for a more fast-paced "up-tempo" game. In order to do that they Wild Roster is going to have to be shaken up and some major play-makers will need to emerge.


I wonder if this more high-energy throw them to the boards approach to hockey will entice fans to come to more games and ultimately raise demand for tickets? One thing is for sure, the buzz surrounding what the Wild will do with Gaborik before he becomes a free agent on July 1st is getting juicy. With rumors flying that Gaborik has purchased a house in Vancouver, could one of the most popular Wild players being headed north to play for the Canucks?

I guess fans will just have to wait and see what comes out of this weekend and early next week, but I think we can expect more changes from Todd Richards...

Will Minnesota Wild Ticket Sales be Affected by Regime Change?

Will Minnesota Wild Ticket Sales be affected by Regime Change? That is the question lingering on the minds of the Minnesota Wild ticket staff after the announcement of new GM Chuck Fletcher and new head coach Todd Richards. Both additions to the Wild are know for their fast paced aggressive offense focused ideology.

The question is, will that fast pace bring in fans game after game or will the new bodies in the organization take time to meld and become successful? The Wild are lucky to have a history of loyal followers, selling out the Xcel Energy Center since the beginning of the Wild Franchise. But will Wild Fans continue to scoop up Minnesota Wild Tickets if the team is not competitive next year? And by competitive I mean PLAYOFF MATERIAL.


Time will tell if the Wild GM and Wild Coach change builds fan support and sells Wild tickets or cools things off in the “State of Hockey” as the Fletcher/Richards duo rebuilds the organization to their standards.

Ticket King Twitters

I just noticed that my favorite Minnesota Ticket broker, Ticket king, has added a feature to their website. It looks as though, Ticket King is going to use Twitter to announce when they have lowered ticket prices on Minnesota Wild Tickets as well as tickets to all other events. I recommend that you sign up because it sure beats having to continuously go to Ticket King's main website to monitor their prices on the tickets that you are interested in. Simply go to the Ticket King website and sign up. It only took me 3 minutes!

As a side note, is anyone else sick of not having a Minnesota Wild Coach yet?

Minnesota Wild miss NHL Playoffs

The Minnesota Wild didn’t make the NHL Playoffs this year so there will be no chance to buy Wild Playoff tickets. Interestingly enough, Ticketmaster sent me an email on Sunday at 9am to remind me to buy my Wild Playoff tickets Monday morning at 10am.

Talk about a kick in the gut.

I am sure it was an automated email, but someone should have switched it off. The Wild aren’t going to the playoffs, there should be no playoff tickets for sale and I didn’t want to think about it when I opened my email. All I have to say is: Game Over.

Minnesota Wild Ticket Prices for Remaining Xcel Energy Center Home Games

After tonight’s Minnesota Wild vs. Vancouver Canucks game, there are only THREE Minnesota Wild home games left. THREE! The Wild are still in the NHL Playoff hunt so fans should be paying attention to every single game.


Minnesota Wild ticket prices are pretty reasonable for the final couple of games, but if the games become playoff deciders, you can bet the prices will only go up! I would buy Wild tickets now because I doubt the prices will get any lower. I looked at prices for Minnesota Wild Tickets on Hockey Tickets Minnesota.com and here is what I found:


The puck drops at 7pm for:

Wild vs Flames Fri 4/3 (tickets start at $69/each)
Wild vs Stars Tue 4/7 (tickets start at $39/each - CHEAP!)
Wild vs Predators Fri 4/10 (tickets start at $54/each)

Minnesota Wild Prices vs Minnesota State High School Hockey Prices

The local news station has been covering the hype of the Minnesota State High School Hockey tournament over at the Xcel Energy Center. Channel 45 is broadcasting all the games and their parent channel, KSTP Channel 5, did a leading news story comparing Minnesota Wild Ticket prices vs. High School Hockey ticket prices. The high school hockey ticket news story concluded that demand for the High School game was actually greater than for the Wild.

Actually, I am surprised at how low Minnesota Wild ticket prices have been lately. I can only explain it by saying the team isn’t playing extremely hot and I think fans get Wild overload by the time March rolls around. High School Hockey is just one weekend of games so there are fewer tickets available and thus demand is higher. Besides that, the Xcel Energy Center doesn’t sell single game tickets like ticket brokers do so fans are willing to pay more for just the game they want and to get the tickets ahead of time as opposed to waiting before the game to pick-up tickets.

The other day I asked my Magic 8 ball: “Will Wild ticket prices go up?” The answer was: “unclear, try again later.” Just like the Wild playoff future.

Limited Wild Home Games in March

Hockey Tickets Minnesota, a Minnesota Wild ticket broker site, pointed out the fact that there are only 4 Wild home games the entire month of March. That isn't very many opportunities for the team of 18,000 to show up at the Xcel Energy Center. The broker site states that since there are so few games, the Wild ticket demand will be high and thus we can conclude that Wild ticket prices will be high as well.


I agree, but on one condition - the Minnesota Wild win consecutive road games and keep close in the NHL playoff chase. If the Wild go on a losing streak, no one is going to pay big bucks to see the team at home even if there are only a few last opportunities. If the Wild can pull off big wins on the road in the next month and keep close in the playoff chase, you can bet Minnesota Wild ticket prices will go up. Moral of the story - it's a gamble on prices. I would recommend buying tickets as soon as you see a winning streak coming on because you can guarantee prices will go up as the home games gets closer, but if the Wild are losing, I would wait until the morning before the game for the best Wild ticket price

Pricing Trends at Ticket King

I spent yesterday afternoon monitoring the prices of Minnesota Wild Tickets online at Ticket King. It seemed as though, that the prices on Wild Tickets for that night's game went down $5-10/Ticket every couple of hours. Two hours before the game, it was possible to by a Wild Ticket for the game for face value which was $30 less than the price of the tickets at the beginning of the day. If you are looking for great prices on Wild Hockey Tickets, check out Ticket King a couple of hours before the game. GO WILD!!!

Minnesota Wild Ticket Prices Continue to Drop

Tomorrow's Minnesota Wild game now has some of the cheapest prices on Minnesota Wild Tickets that I have ever seen for a regular season game. Prices continued to drop, even though the Minnesota Wild looked great in the 6-3 win over the Phoenix Coyotes last night. My hunch is that prices on Wild Hockey Tickets are going to continue to drop on all games unless the Minnesota Wild goes on a winning streak or trades for a big name player. I will see you at the Xcel Energy Center
