Winnipeg could reach season ticket target by end of day
Winnipeg's new NHL team will open up ticket sales to the general public on Saturday, and with more than half of the 13,000 season tickets already claimed in presales the ownership group's president says it won't take long to sell out.

Jim Ludlow, president of True North Sports and Entertainment, says brisk presales suggest the season ticket drive could reach its target by the end of the day.

In 25 minutes, the rush begins.. I hope they do very well, and that it continues next year after Winnipeggers realize they have another crappy hockey team.

NHL season tickets sell out in just 17 minutes
Hockey fans in this province have spoken loudly and clearly with their hearts. And now -- most importantly for Winnipeg?s new NHL franchise ? they?ve stepped up with their wallets.
True North Sports and Entertainment?s ?Drive to 13,000? season-ticket campaign lasted less than 72 hours as the last tickets were claimed within 17 minutes of Saturday?s noon opening to the general public. The pre-sale set aside exclusively for Manitoba Moose season-ticket and mini-pack holders and corporate sponsors reached 7,158 by Friday afternoon with the remaining 5,842 commitments gobbled up quickly not long after the on-line window opened.
