Just got an Email from the BU ticket office officially announcing that "Red Hot Hockey is back" on Saturday, 11/28/09 at 8PM.
Ticketmaster is apparently conducting a pre-sale for BU "Advantage Members" this Thursday (3/12), with the message also stating that tickets for the general public go on sale the next day (Friday, 3/13) at noon.
You'll be able to choose seats in either the Cornell or BU "sections" via the Ticketmaster ordering page...not sure if I remember being able to do that last year.
The event page at Ticketmaster is here (which also confirms what the BU Email said):
[www.ticketmaster.com]
Surprised we haven't heard anything from the Cornell ticket office yet.

This was definitely an option last year. It just didn't seem to matter because the majority of fans were from Cornell anyway.

Hopefully we'll hear something from Cornell before then. I think two years ago you could order from the Cornell Box Office which got you out of being hosed by Ticketmaster fees.
Of course, this comes at a pretty bad time for the Cornell ticket office, handling NCAA BBall, and the ECACHL playoffs.

Did CU have tickets anywhere other than the 300 level last time? I ended up with 200 level through ticketmaster last time because CU only had 300's by the time I called. I'd rather not pay ticketmaster fees again.

You mean the mega Big East squeakball Tourney in which every team gets to play isn't bringing in enough dough to MSG?
A part of me was hoping that DePaul (with zero conference wins) would have a great week and run the table and knock a decent team out of the tourney.
Although it probably wouldn't change things for most leagues (hockey included, except for HE and AH tourneys that take the top 8 teams) who think these conference tourneys should be "open" to all comers, no matter what their league record.
Okay, off the soapbox so that people can complain about how unfair it is that they will have to lend ticketscalper/MSG money for tickets to an event that is more than 8 months away.
(BTW, how many more days do I have before I have to give the NC$$ money 13 months before the 2010 FF?

Athletics
With the overwhelming success of Red Hot Hockey between Cornell and Boston University during the 2007-08 season, the Big Red and Terriers will again clash at Madison Square Garden during the upcoming 2009-10 season on Thanksgiving weekend, and you're invited to have the first chance at securing the best seats in the house!
Cornell and Boston University will meet on Saturday, November 28, 2009, at 8 p.m. at Madison Square Garden in a rematch of the November 24, 2007, meeting between the two squads that marked the first time a college hockey game had sold out the "World's Most Famous Arena."
A special pre-sale for Cornell Athletics VIPs will be held for ONE DAY ONLY on Thursday, March 12, 2009, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. VIPs may place their pre-orders for tickets by calling the Cornell Athletic Ticket Office at 607-255-4247. Sorry, tickets will not be available at the box office windows until Friday, March 13.
Ticket prices when purchased from the Cornell Athletics Ticket Office are as follows:
Lower Bowl: $65 + $5 handling fee
100-200 Levels: $35 + $3 handling fee
300-400 Levels: $25 + $3 handling fee
300-400 Levels (for Cornell students): $15 + $1 handling fee
**all handling fees are per ticket**
Fans can also pre-order tickets by going to www.Ticketmaster.com and using the promotional code HPBIGRED to ensure seats in the Cornell section. Different fees will apply.
Tickets will go on sale to the general public on Friday, March 13, at the Cornell Athletic Ticket Office at 10 a.m., and will be available for sale prior to Cornell's ECAC Hockey quarterfinal series game one against Rensselaer on Friday night. Tickets for this weekend's quarterfinal series are also still available at the Cornell Athletic Ticket Office.

I got an email from athletics as an "Athletics VIP" I also got an email earlier this week about ticket sales for the quarterfinals.
ETA: I'm pretty sure this is from the thing about a year ago where you could sign up for an email list where you would find out about ticket sales ahead of time.

They told me I'd get them by the end of the month. Then again, I was ordering the cheap seats, with the $1 handling fee, so it must not take as much effort to process.

maybe because I ordered 8? Not sure...probably should have just waited to see what ticketmaster had to offer, I got some great seats through them last year.
Did you get your actual seats? Or just that theyd be somewhere in the section?

Somewhere in the lower bowl, which is really all I need to know.

I finally got through, ordered 10, and Gene indicated it wouldn't be in problem (in the 100s). I'm in Ithaca, so he said I would likely be able to pick them up before Saturday's game. Side note from past experience, I wouldn't try leaving a number, just keep calling.

Tix available at MSG box office tmrw beginning at noon. No fees. Or get a group together and call MSG group sales (minimum ticket order: 9). You will have to pick up the tickets at the Garden box office unless you want them sent to you for $25 Fedex. The MSG group sales office # is 212-465-6080. Press 7 and you're on your way.

We called ticket master group sales (current count is me plus 20) but the lady we talked to could only offer us tickets in the 200 level. She said something about not having accesss to the lower bowl tickets so we tried the cornell box office instead. We were "put on the list" for those tickets and were assured that our preferences would be taken into account. FWIW, they said they had sold over 3000 tickets already. I don't know if that's just Cornell or all of the tickets but that's pretty freakin' crazy for under 25 hours of ticket sales.

Finally got my tickets Saturday. Apparently the 100-200 sections were the last they processed. Had ordered 22 but they called during the week and said the best the could do was 19 together - which was okay since I had ordered a few extra anyway in case some non-committal friends decided they would make the trip to NYC, although the ticket office had previously assured me that 22 together would be no problem. They said before mailing last week that they would be in 3 rows, back to back, which I said was excellent rather than strung out over a long row and a fraction. However they ended up being seats 8-13 in the first two rows and 1-7 in the third one.
So, if anyway has Section 225 Row E seats 8-13 and would trade for 1-6, that would be appreciated (or even 8-9 for 1-2) so I can consolidate my block. Thanks.

Here is the seating chart if you want to see your seats. If you click on the section you will get a cool picture of your view which you can move around.

There are no more seats in the 100 and 200 levels, and the ticket office has only a small amount of 300-level seats. I presume there are still 400-level seats, but you'd be smart to avoid them.

Sat in the 400's last year. Nothing wrong with it. The 400 level at the Garden is still a really good seat.

We stood directly in front of the band for two years at Lynah. Best seats I ever had! The 400s are fine, though it's tough to see the near end if you're behind the goal because of the severe overhang. I'd try to avoid those, unless you're in the front row.

An update for other procrastinators:
Via ticketmaster.com, I was able to get 4 tickets yesterday in the blue seats (section 405- which is actually descent in the garden). I had to search for tickets under the tab labeled "Cornell section" (for some reason the "all available" doesn't find anything available). I imagine there's not all that much left, though msg does release day-of tickets for some events (I've walked up 10min before game time and bought Rangers tickets). Don't know if this will be the situation for the CU BU game.
Via ticketmaster.com, I was able to get 4 tickets yesterday in the blue seats (section 405- which is actually descent in the garden). I had to search for tickets under the tab labeled "Cornell section" (for some reason the "all available" doesn't find anything available). I imagine there's not all that much left, though msg does release day-of tickets for some events (I've walked up 10min before game time and bought Rangers tickets).

Just saw a TV commercial for the game on MSG Network. Granted it was during an airing of "Rollerball" and not any kind of a prime ad-sales time period, but still, nice to see them promoting it.

I also saw a video ad for it on the big jumbotron out front of MSG (7th Ave. side) while arriving for a train a couple of weeks ago. At least it sounds like it's not sold out just yet, if they're pushing it.

S' OK Josh- I also liked Rollerball, at least the game sequences. The 1975 original with James Caan, not the sucky remake of about 2002. I thought the game as it was played in the first sequence ("Madrid Rules" was a viable game. In fact, Sports Illustrated had an artical about an actual game played by the cast stuntmen after completion of filming in the Munich Olympic Basketball Arena.

They have a video on the MSG web site. All they're selling in the "Cornell Fan Section" are $25 seats. In the "Boston University Fan Section" they are offering seats for $25, $35, and $65.BeeeejJosh '99

I love the original. You couldn't pay me to see the remake.

They also had an ad for it back during Rangers playoff series with the Caps.
