So the clock is now on..... Been a fan of this team since I was old enough to be a fan, and have never been to a home game. Next season it is!

Get to a game at Northlands if you can, not that bad really. I have been to many there, good atmosphere if a little austere and concrete.

Over the years, I've always heard that the atmosphere is good, but the building is (now) very dated, and not all that nice of a place anymore (hence why they're building a new arena).

If I don't get to at least one game before the close the doors, I'll be kicking myself in the rear for the next 30 years.

Won't be able to afford tickets now for the average joe!
