Kevin Posted September 27, 2021 Share Posted September 27, 2021 Just tried getting tickets on stubhub. Had login issues but there were some seats available for a reasonable price at first. Almost all of them are gone already Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keirik Posted September 27, 2021 Share Posted September 27, 2021 I figured it was this day too since zucc is in town. Day after my birthday too lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharpshooter Posted September 27, 2021 Share Posted September 27, 2021 Ah, that's right! Zucc will be there! That's cool that they did that. I'm sure that was the reason. lol It's going to be an emotional night for sure. I'm getting goosebumps just thinking about how great those 'HEN-RIK' chants will be!

Drew a Penalty Posted September 27, 2021 Share Posted September 27, 2021 Prices are gonna normalize eventually. People are going wild because of the announcement. I'm still expecting to pay 2-3x the price but not one of these thousand dollar figures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Heaven Posted September 27, 2021 Share Posted September 27, 2021 (edited) and just like that I sold a single ticket for $390 in about 10 minutes....I guess I set the price too low My cost was $75, so $$$ to make up the loss for the pre-season games.

RJWantsTheCup Posted September 27, 2021 Share Posted September 27, 2021 In the matter of seconds the cheapest seats available went from $225 a ticket to $390. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shestYORKin Posted September 27, 2021 Share Posted September 27, 2021 haven’t seen it mentioned anywhere so maybe it’s a taboo subject but can’t help but wonder if the decision to retire Hank’s jersey so quickly has to do with the medical issues. I hope he lives to be 100 but maybe the team is putting extra importance on doing this sooner rather than later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharpshooter Posted September 27, 2021 Share Posted September 27, 2021 Perhaps. My thinking is that he deserves to have it done immediately, so they're going to just do it. Look how long it took them to retire the numbers of guys like Howell, Bathgate and Ratelle. Absurd. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shestYORKin Posted September 27, 2021 Share Posted September 27, 2021 no doubt he deserves it and then some. would love to see him back in the organization ASAP with a meaningful/influential role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharpshooter Posted September 27, 2021 Share Posted September 27, 2021 I don't know what the position will be exactly, but I think it was confirmed awhile ago that he have some sort of job with the organization. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact they waited years for Messier, Richter, Leetch, Graves, Bathgate, Hadfield, Ratelle, and Howell is a joke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The moment Hank announced his retirement, the first, second, third, and fourth thoughts in the minds of every Rangers fan was "when is his number getting retired!?"

shestYORKin Posted September 27, 2021 Share Posted September 27, 2021 all true. it meets the moment and sort of course corrects the previous retirements. I guess the wait with the others is what makes this seem so urgent. the medical factor just feels like the elephant in the room tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope he lives to be 100 but maybe the team is putting extra importance on doing this sooner rather than later. pericarditis, which kept him from playing this season, is not a life threatening issue when identified. It's a toughening of the tissue around the heart, and they typically either remove it or just cut a window in it to give the heart room to continue operation. The issue is that if undetected, it dramatically increases the odds of a heart attack during exertion periods, which leads to death. Source: my dad had this exact same condition and almost died when I was 14. He's over 70 now and still plays hockey. Henrik will be fine but his NHL days are certainly over. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
