Puck Daddy on Yahoo! Sports reports that Ticketmaster leaked information revealing that one of the five games between the Los Angeles Kings and the San Jose Sharks will be at the San Francisco 49ers' new home, Levi's Stadium.
When the schedule was released earlier this year, it was analyzed that the game would have a game outdoors and it would be either at the 49ers' home or at AT&T Park. Why Levi's? Capacity.
But the reason the league looks like it's going with Levi's Stadium, which held its first-ever event just Saturday night (a Major League Soccer game between the San Jose Earthquakes and the Seattle Sounders), is right there in the final line: 26,997 more seats. Multiply that by whatever they're charging for admission, and you have a whole lot of sweet, sweet coin.
The game will likely take place on Saturday, February 21st, at 7:00 PM Pacific time, according to the Ticketmaster photo.
Other Kings news
- As the team approaches the salary cap, the Kings were able to re-sign Dwight King with a three-year deal for $5.9 million. They've been able to hold on to the majority of the players from last season and still have roughly $200,000 left in cap space. That's basically it for them signing players this offseason.
- Jarrett Stoll strolled around Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, with the Stanley Cup, giving fans a chance to look at the trophy and get pictures from the Kings player.
