Japers’ Rink and OptionIt are happy to announce that we’ll be giving away two lower-level tickets to see the Washington Capitals‘ first home game of the Stanley Cup Finals. In the event that the Caps do not make the Finals, the winner will receive two ducats for the home opener in 2010-11.

So, you might ask: how can you offer tickets to a game that isn’t on sale yet and might not involve Les Capitals? And aren’t you jinxing the team?
OptionIt is an official partner with the Capitals. It offers “options” to buy tickets at face value at a future date, including TBD playoff games. You can read more about how this works here.
OptionIt will provide the winner an option for the Stanley Cup Finals – Home Game 1. This option entitles the holder to purchase two Lower Preferred Seats – Section 114-119, for the Caps’ first home game, at face value. Should the option be ‘exercisable’ (in other words, if the Caps make the Finals), OptionIt will also pay for the face value price of the tickets – effectively giving the winner an absolutely FREE lower-level ticket to Home Game 1!
And no, it’s not a jinx. It’s spreading the love to our readers.
So go sign up and best of luck.
Remember the contest runs through Saturday, February 13th – the date of the last game before the Olympic break.
