I heard that the Bostin Bruins will be playing some German team on October the 2nd in the Oddessy in Belfast. The Giants will have an away match that night.

as in the ticket or the cost of driving . it is pretty dear alright for the ticket

PMC83 · 13-07-2010 8:45am

The tickets are as cheap as 40 euro? I did't think this was too bad....I saw the Bruins in Boston a year back, I think the cheapest was 80 dollars...

Rented Mule · 13-07-2010 10:25pm

The price of the regular season NHL games in Europe last season was at least €125 per ticket.

PMC83 · 13-07-2010 10:46pm

Hmmm, thats pricey allright, I bought one of the more pricey seats for 70 lids of ticket master, I reckon its gonna be worth it:P

Problem with this is , its not even going to be the Giants first team as they have another game that weekend .

FunnyStuff · 04-08-2010 2:58pm

Its not the Giants game though, its a league selection i thought.

MrJoeSoap · 30-09-2010 7:21pm

Who else is going to this? I've got a 3rd row seat, can't wait! Going to spend the weekend in Belfast and hopefully bump into the Bruins around town!

cena · 01-10-2010 12:52am

Is it sold out.

I'm going. Got 4th row tickets I think. Can't wait for it!

It is the Giants with a some players from other teams. I heard they needed forwards because a lot of Giants' forwards are injured. Not sure how true it is though. If you look on the Bruins website it says Vs Giants Select, or something to that effect.

cena · 02-10-2010 1:06am

Is it going too be shown on tv

Haven't seen anything about it.

bobby wade · 03-10-2010 12:43am

damn how'd I miss this????

how'd it go?

FunnyStuff · 03-10-2010 9:52pm

Fantastic game, Bruins won 5-1 but the Giants select gave it a good go and can be proud of the way they played. Especially the goalie Murphy, he had a blinder and only for him it could have been a huge number. They played hard and didnt hold back, but the Bruins fitness and pace told through in the end. Was great to see those guys skate, their turn of speed on the ice is something else. Eye catchers on the night for the Bruins were Sequin ( his break to up the ice to get the penalty was unreal, the retreating D-man was turned inside out and fell over ) and i thought Chara played well, his awareness of what is around him is great.

Spot on, thought Seguin looked great and deserved his two goals. His penalty shot was pretty neat too, he looked to be oozing with confidence. Great to see Mark Recchi up close too, the man is a legend. The atmosphere around Belfast for the few days was great too. Hopefully not the last time it'll happen.
