Looking forward to the game. My daughter and I are sat in Row B in 202 for the first time, right behind the Panthers. Thankfully my anxiety isn't bad after a lovely Christmas Day.

Fingers crossed for a great Boxing Day.

Fantastic to be sold out.

Think there’s a trick missed though as I think the sell out was expected and extra seats could have been installed. I know at least 5 people that were unable to get a ticket.

For that to happen you need the following.

The "sell out" needs to be confirmed with sufficient time beforehand to organise the installation of the extra seating and enough measurable demand to justify the cost, and that's assuming they still have the equipment to do it..

When was the last time this actually happened?

From memory sometimes during the last season prior to the ISL, I cannot remember if it happened during the ISL but I can remember a B&H Cup Final v Newcastle with an attendance of 10,000+ , maybe 10,200 ?.

So I like to speculate to accumulate. I’d have ordered the extra seating in August expecting a Boxing Day sell out.

I remember frequent games v Devils where they had the extra seating out. No ideas what years though.

Scrappy 1st period. Massive crowd. Zero atmosphere.
