PromoTheRobot Posted April 11, 2011 Report Posted April 11, 2011 I have family in Germany and one of my distant cousins plays youth hockey and is a HUGE Sabres fan. I hope he gets to the Berlin game. PTR
JoDo Posted April 11, 2011 Report Posted April 11, 2011 For some reason I don't like this. However in 08-09 Pittsburgh went and won the cup, and in 09-10 Chicago went and won the cup. This year 3 out of 6 teams that went are in the playoffs: Boston, Phoenix, and San Jose. We'll see if history repeats (only if Buffalo doesn't make it!)
spndnchz Posted April 11, 2011 Report Posted April 11, 2011 This could be the best road trip ever. Have to call the travel agent.
Oakstream Posted April 11, 2011 Report Posted April 11, 2011 Living in Sweden I'm pissed that they play in Finland and Germany, while all the other three teams plays in Sweden... Oh well, I will travel to Finland and Germany! Never thought Buffalo would play so near me anyways!
Two or less Posted April 11, 2011 Report Posted April 11, 2011 This could be the best road trip ever. Have to call the travel agent. Don't bother. Sabres will have travel plans available to fans. I'm in, along 2 other friends for sure. Can't wait!
beerme1 Posted April 11, 2011 Report Posted April 11, 2011 Don't bother. Sabres will have travel plans available to fans. I'm in, along 2 other friends for sure. Can't wait! You think so? That would be very helpful if they did that and the pack could stay together and go through the villages while we are there and well, you know.

That would be very helpful if they did that and the pack could stay together and go through the villages while we are there and well, you know. I know several teams that have went overseas have offered a package, such as the Wild and Carolina. So i asked Mike Harrington on twitter if he knew if there was any plans for such for Sabres, and he said yes, they will make a package available, announced at a later date.
TheMatrix31 Posted April 11, 2011 Report Posted April 11, 2011 Argh.....that sucks. This probably takes any game that would otherwise be here in LA or in Anaheim off the table.
Taro T Posted April 11, 2011 Report Posted April 11, 2011 Argh.....that sucks. This probably takes any game that would otherwise be here in LA or in Anaheim off the table. It'll take 1 of them off the table. Don't know right now if the league is planning on having the Sabres play either or both a 2nd time. At most the Sabres will be in SoCal once (not counting a miracle run the the finals for the Kings ;)).
Ghost of Dwight Drane Posted April 11, 2011 Report Posted April 11, 2011 Oktoberfest ends October 3rd. That stinks, unless you go a week early.
afan Posted April 12, 2011 Report Posted April 12, 2011 You think so? That would be very helpful if they did that and the pack could stay together and go through the villages while we are there and well, you know. As someone already posted, the Canes and Wild both had group travel available. I didn't go (Canes fan) but I know many who did. Canes had over 300 fans go. IIRC, the Canes trip (via AAA) was cheaper than the Wild's trip (with a different travel group) but was a day longer...or something like that. Here's an old thread that talks about the trip...this is the page where the Wild's trip was announced with prices http://www.letsgocanes.com/forum/showthread.php?t=10902&page=13 and the page with the Canes travel package: http://www.letsgocanes.com/forum/showthread.php?t=10902&page=14 If it's in your budget, I can say that every person who went loved the trip completely. I'm sure the 2 wins helped, but it was a real trip of a lifetime it seems.
LabattBlue Posted April 12, 2011 Report Posted April 12, 2011 For the cost of that trip($3,000-$5,000), you could take a Sabres roadie to Florida(see both games) AND buy a pair of season tickets in the 300's.
chileanseabass Posted April 12, 2011 Report Posted April 12, 2011 I just checked my travel schedule, and I'll be in Dusseldorf for a trade show on October 8-12. I'm going to have to try to work this out. Any news on when tickets go on sale, how much, or where to buy?

Ghost of Dwight Drane Posted April 12, 2011 Report Posted April 12, 2011 I'll be in Dusseldorf Great movie.....if you're into that sort of stuff. Why can't the NFL send the Bills to Sicily for a game?
LaLaLaFontaine Posted April 12, 2011 Report Posted April 12, 2011 Oooohhhhhh yeah Buffalo comes to Germany. I love this!!!! I hope to get some tickets.
beerme1 Posted May 9, 2011 Report Posted May 9, 2011 I got an e mail from AAA but it appears they are still in the process of putting it together. It does say there will be speacial team events. I'm guessing road crew type of thing. http://wcny.aaa.com/travel/sabres-form?utm_campaign=MEM_May_Newsletter_10May11&utm_medium=email&utm_source=MEM

Two or less Posted May 13, 2011 Report Posted May 13, 2011 Did someone say Oktoberfest and hookers? I may be in.
wjag Posted May 13, 2011 Report Posted May 13, 2011 http://sabres.nhl.com/club/news.htm?id=562307 1700 with all 'transportation included'. Last time I looked airplanes were included in 'transportation'. Airfare not included. Add another, what 800-1000? Still a chance to be in Berlin and Munchen is worth consideration. Cue the jeopardy music... ..... ..... ..... ..... ..... ..... ..... ..... So after careful consideration. No
