It's the hottest ticket in town!

The Moose Jaw Warriors are up two-games-to-none on the Portland Winterhawks in the Western Hockey Championship final with games three, four and five in Moose Jaw this week.

Hockey fans are scrambling for tickets - doing their best to pick them up online and standing in line to buy them.

The Warriors' retail store, The Crushed Can, has been a busy place.

A friend of mine wanted to buy a jersey last week but they were sold out so she went to a local, online marketplace where she found an old game-worn sweater for sale. She contacted the seller immediately and made the deal for $80 cash money.

When she met with the young fella selling the jersey she found he was somewhat reluctant to give it up so she asked him why he was selling it.

He told her he needed money to buy tickets for the games this week.

My friend got her jersey and now I just hope that kid got his tickets.

It seems to me he is a true hockey fan.
