I attend one or two a year. It's strange I don't attend more, I enjoy hockey and I live on the west side of town. One reason I don't hit too many game is the same reason I gave up my Cardinals season tickets a couple years ago. I'm working towards earning my Bachelor's Degree and most of my free time is spent studying or doing homework. My other problem is work; I typically get up at 4:00 am for work and now that I'm getting a little older, I hate feeling like crap from a lack of sleep lol.
The other reason is that I just haven't been able to get into the team the last few years, mostly since their move to Glendale. The arena feels strange to me during games and I don't identify with the players like I did during the early years (Roenick, Tkachuk , etc).

Occasional... BUT, if they were to move downtown, I can guarantee that my attendance would go way up!!
On average, I get to roughly 7 or 8 games a season. Honestly, getting out to Glendale is a drag. Particularly during the week! I work downtown and would LOVE to go from my office to a game!!

I attended a number of the over the last few years. I had a connection though, an old coworker's husband was the ticket manager. I would get free tickets to weeknight games on a fairly regular basis. He's the ticket manager for the Pittsburgh Pirates now, so I got cut off. I answered less than half, but now that's probably going to have to be scaled back.

I attended first game in a couple years last night. Coming from south Scottsdale, man it sucked. Left around 5:20. Barely got to our seats before the puck dropped.

Yep... Weekends aren't nearly as bad. But man I hope they're able to eventually bring 'em downtown!
I am taking my girlfriend on Saturday. First game this year. I typically go to 1 or 2 a year.

This is me as well.
I just go every now and then when I get the urge or have a few extra bucks laying around. We used to get the mini-plans every year, but the ownership issues every year plus the lockout really pushed my passion and consequently my prioritization of buying tickets down.

I usually attend a dozen or so. The first one this year will be on the 27th against the Flames. Once they move back downtown 
I'll probably get season tix.

We used to go to a lot of the games - until they moved out to Glendale. Now we go to one or two a year if that.
If they move to the East Side or downtown we would definitely go to a lot of games again.

I try to go a few times a year, but that drive is awful 5 days a week. If they were downtown I would probably buy a partial season.

I live out of state, so I never have been to a Coyotes game live - I do watch every one possible on FSAZ.
The next time I visit my family back home (Mesa area) during the season I plan on making it to a game. Been to a couple of DBack games in Chase, since summer is an easier time to visit.

I love hockey games. Me and my brothers and sisters used to go to Roadrunner games all the time back at the madhouse. It was so much fun.
I still go to one or two Coyotes games a year but honestly, much like the SUNS, the price keeps me from going. It's outrageous IMO. It's on par with the Cardinals but the difference is the Cardinals only play 8 home games a year.
That is why I love the Dbacks so much and I go to 20-30 games a season. You can go to a Dbacks game for almost nothin... I think the cheapest ticket at a Yotes game is $45 and that is way in the nosebleeds. The cheapest ticket in the lower bowl is like $65?
Which is fine, not ragging on them, I'm sure thats on par with the rest of the NHL, but to a very casual hockey fan like myself, I'm just not going to pay that much. If they would offer some $20 seats in the upper deck would go to a lot more games.

Bert - weeknight games, check stub hub. I got two tickets front row upper deck center ice for 20 each - and if you wanted to sit back a little, or not center ice, you could get them for $12 each
Love watching hockey games live. I (like many of you) would be at a lot more if the arena wasn't on the westside. I will be going to the Coyotes/Red Wings game Jan 14th and I will probably get home at 11/11:30 that night. That's the biggest issue
I really will check it out Jon, thanks. Honestly it's fitting this thread popped up because I was going to go to a game spur-of-the-moment last week and I looked on ticketmaster and was just like man, way too much, so I didn't wind up going.
