Houston Aeros

I was really happy just to see some hockey, and we saw many of the Aeros play for the Wild last year. We all want NHL back, but i'm glad I got to see our Houston team play, at least

Fun to watch the AHL clubs for a change of pace. Would like to see them visit the Xcel a couple of more times a year, just to see what the Wild's future holds.

Game was awesome, stadium looked great. The line for concessions took a long time but its understandable with the lock out they are a little rusty.

Great games great seats FINALLY some hockey at the X we got to see some of the future wild players. To bad Granlund was out, but Coyle looked good

At least I get to see some hockey at the xcel center this season

The game was very good. Definitely not NHL but still enjoyable hockey, The concessions were kind of a mess. LONG lines and undercooked food.

Great filler for the striking NHL. Excellent to see some of our future Wild players in action.

I was in club and it was terribly bad. The lines for food and drinks were insanely long. They only had 2 stands open for food.i get that it's not an nhl game but I expected more hockey and less standing in line.

Glad I was able to go watch a Hockey game at the Xcel! Wasn't the same not being the MN Wild but got to see some of the players that played for the team last season. They played hard and were fun to watch

My biggest complaint is that we were on the club level of the arena and they only had one concession stand open per end of the arena. The lines were outrageously long for the entire game. It was bad enough that it kept us from purchasing any food or beverage while at the game. Also, when purchasing the tickets, it was not specified that the club level row we were in was a drink rail row. Although it turned out OK, it would have been nice if that would have been more clearly indicated as it may have affected my seat choice. In addition, the end of the rink that Houston shot at was not the same as the end the Wild normally shoot at twice. This would have been good information to make known when purchasing the tickets as well. We ended up at the wrong end because of this.

Was a great event and wish we could have more AHL games in town.

Game was great - wonderful to see hockey again. Only drawback was the Xcel wasn't ready for as many people as were there. I was in the club level and only 2 concession stands were open and no bars - so I stood in line longer than I wanted to for a pretty crappy beer. The game was awesome though!

this was my third time seeing an Aeros game at the X. I had also seen their games in March 2005 and February 2011. I like how it's a cheaper ticket than the Wild, $20 for all seats. Bought a Wild tree ornament while there. At the previous game I had bought an Aeros shirt. Good hockey, as many players were dumped in the minors due to the NHL's labor dispute. Saw a sign there about it saying 'we want the Wild back!' Nice to see the Aeros hold on and beat the Rockford Icehogs after building an early lead.

Just to the comment that the Aeros should be up in MN permanently, I just wanted you to know that Texas does take good care of their Aeros and Texans LOVE THEM!!! :) Houston Aeros WOOTWOOT!!!

It's nice to see our farm team come up from Texas once in awhile. It seems silly to keep our team down south when we have real hockey and real snow here in MN. Watching the Aeros is fun, it's just too bad we keep them in TX. If they were in MN I would consider getting season tickets. Fun game!

Being able to watch Anton Khudobin, and getting his autograph was awesome!

The game was boring to watch and no action at all. It was hard to watch and I've been to high school and college games that have been way more exciting and faster paced than that game. The only good thing was the Wild players signing autographs before the game. I definetly would not recommend someone to go to this game the next time the Aeros play at the Xcel Energy Center and definetly won't waste my time with it again.

Great to see our upcoming NHL stars in action:-)))

Good event for the young hockey players(7-10 y/o) to see and get autographs they had a great time

houston aeros just like watching the pros. the guys have skills.

Tickets were over-priced for the event. Seating should have been sold for club level or lower level only. Crowd was too dispersed and did not create a fun atmosphere.

This was a great AHL game that had two teams battling for position in the playoffs. The Aeros came out flat a lot of the times, but I knew that I was going to see a pair of AHL teams play. The fights that took place were also fun, if you're into that. All around it was a great game for the price.

A great time. Good game. Lots of fun..............
