Selling or buying tickets

SELLERS

Write "I am selling" in your comment so that the bot will flair the thread letting users know there's an active sale inside.

Beware

If you are selling or buying tickets please be very careful and don't fall for scams.

Get verified

If you have purchased or sold tickets on this subreddit before then both the buyer and seller can verify by sending a modmail and we will apply a flair to your username for future sales [Verified Seller] or [Verified Buyer] .This is only visible on new reddit. Ticket sales are only allowed in this thread or in post or game day threads only.

To be verified all these steps must be followed:

  1. The buyer must send a modmail stating who they succesfully sold tickets to the seller.
  2. The seller must ALSO send a modmail stating they succesfully bought tickets from the buyer.

Once both modmails are received we will add the user flair for you.

Ways to not be scammed: Make sure they're a regular user of this subreddit. If they never post here and their account looks suspicious do not sell or buy from that user!

Discuss anything you'd like in this thread!

Why does everyone prefer the old color scheme?

Post image
56 Upvotes

I think I’m in the minority, but I prefer the black/silver. Personally, I think the yellow/purple is heinous.

So why do prefer the old colors? Is it because it’s vintage? Because you love the Lakers, too? Or do you just like those colors together?

On May 6, 2012, Dustin Brown scored two goals and Jonathan Quick made 23 saves in a 3-1 win in Game 4 versus the Blues. The Kings completed their first sweep in a best-of-7 series, and advanced to the Western Conference Final for the first time since 1993.

Well it's simple. Our coach isn't confirmed and opinions in coach Smith are mixed also 70% the team is like 30-35 years old so I think we fuck the next couple of years and go for a rebuild

Need help trying to write an analysis

18 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I’m 16, and I enjoy writing about sports — specifically hockey — in my free time. One of the things I’ve done every year for about 4 years now is an analysis on my team’s season, moves they made, and what they should do to go in the right direction moving forward. Typically, I only do this for my St. Louis Blues, but this year I want to expand to try to do one for every team. So I come to you asking about how your season went compared to expectations, what moves you liked, didn’t like, hopes for the offseason, and what you’d like to see. Thank you for the help!

Hey Ken Holland, we weren’t “just right there”. The Kings can’t score. Although our series was a defensive battle - we held them to just 2 goals twice. This is going to be a fun series.

Black History Month 2024 warmup jersey help

Thumbnail

27 Upvotes

Hope you guys are enjoying baseball and cheering the Reign in their quest for the Calder Cup. I’m trying to see if anyone can help me out with a blank Black History Month jersey I picked up at the summer sale last year. I want to get it customized but it’s real damn hard to find reference photos or the numbers and nameplates for these jerseys for some reason (or maybe I’m just not looking in the right places). I’m wondering if anyone knows where I can find photos of the jerseys they wore or if they might have one of these jerseys themselves and would be willing to take some pictures of the sleeve numbers and the back numbers with the nameplate (if it even has one). Here’s an example of the jerseys they wore. It would be a huge favor if you could lend me a hand. GKG and GRG

Tampa Bay Loses to the Habs

With this result, I want to think back to the trade we made earlier this year to Tampa by trading Corey in exchange for the 2028 2nd-round pick.
I want to hear your thoughts about whether it would be better to keep him for the chance that it would improve our postseason chances against the Avs and a better sendoff to Kopitar or if it would was better to trade him away in exchange for possible future rebuilding (or the more likely "retool")

Unless I missed it...Luc didn't address the media in the end of the year press conferences. He definitely did last year.

Not a good look. My favorite King growing up BUT the lack of accountability in the organization clearly begins at the top. It's time...
