I got the game yesterday and it is so cool The tokens are players, goal net, Zamboni, and pucks. The places aren't streets they are the teams in the NHL. When you are sent to the penalty box it is in place of going to Jail. I can't wait to play it with the boys.

Tks. Jeep, my thoughts excatly, I think the problem is that they are no longer making the "Collectors Edition NHL Monopoly" it is out of print now. I am getting my dh to pick up a "Texas Hold Em Monopoly" for my son, i think he may enjoy that Monopoly even more than the NHL one?? Tks. Everyone for all your help!! :applaud:
Chea I feel for you to bad why do they do this to us advertise something they can't deliver.
Well i think i have exhasted all my contacts, i can't seem to get this NHL Monopoly game ANYWHERE!! well except in St. Albert, Alta and that would not be in time for Xmas............ I can get the NHL Monopoly "customize" game, but that is not the same.............Oh well, i gave it a good try!!
Called the Hockey Hall of Fame this morning and no luck there either!
I know of only one place i can buy it and that is in St. Albert, Alberta!! through a website called boardgames.ca, it is also more money for the game $45.95 plus i would have to pay for shipping also. Some places i called only have the NHL Monopoly "customize" game, different from the NHL Collectors Edition Monopoly game...............Ok i will keep trying, i will not give up........well at least not yet :mad:
How about Superstore, Walmart, Zeller's, Shopper's Drug Mart, London Drugs, or Home Hardware? Some of these stores bring in toys just for Xmas time so you never know. Do you have any stores around that specialize in just games and accessories? There used to be one here in a mall that sold billiard tables and lots of different board games you don't see other places so maybe you have something similar where you live. Good luck!
he NHL web site ?? if they licence it they may carry it . . .
Tks. Zulu, Yes they are in the states, i am still trying to buy it in Canada hopefully!! Tks. everyone for all your help, i will try calling the hockey hall of fame tomorrow, they are now closed!

They have it, but it is in US
Tks. condogirl i will call the hockey hall of fame gift shop and see.............Yes jeep i also called another Avon lady and she is going to see if any of the other Avon ladies have any "extra" NHL hockey monopoly games left??
Yes you are right it is just like the Cabbagepatch doll craziness that happened a number of yrs. ago,...........now it's happening with this NHL board game hahahah
Now I know what it felt like to have an orginal Cabbage Patch Kid I didn't know they were such a hot item but man am I glad I got mine. I spoke with my Avon lady today and she tried to order more and it said they will not be getting anymore.
Sorry I don't know where you are located but the hockey hall of fame gift shop carries them. Also I have seen it at toys 'R' us ... hope that helps.
ok Canadian Tire doesn't carry it, now on to Sears!! Wish me luck!!
Toys r us is SOLD out of it!! ok now to try Sears & Canadian Tire!! ok i am on a mission now!! :hairpull:
I have no idea dbd? All that i know is that it is sold by Avon! Gosh this sure is a hard game to get!! What a mystery this is! I have been on hold for Toys r Us for the last 25mins!
Who makes the game? maybe if you went to their website they would have a list of retailers.
No i actually haven't tried C.Tire or that, i guess i should, i was thinking it was just Avon that sells it?? I will give them a try, tks. janetc
did you try Canadian tire, Sears wish book and Toys R Us......
smiles
janetc
Tks. smoodgie, i checked out that website for the NHL game and yea it does look different from the Avon one.
Jeep you should be thrilled to have one, rub it in! hahahha Oh gosh i will still check around, i will not give up!! as god is my witness i will have the NHL game either this year or next year!!...........I just wonder why it is so darn hard to get a hold of?? :hairpull:
I just checked that site and it lists as "IN Stock" then right below that it says "currantly unavailable"whatever that means that one looks different than mine. Mine for one comes in a box that is square and the board folds and it claims to be classic collectors addition. Right now I could care less if it is a collectors addition I am just thrilled to have it.

I ordered it in Nov also and she told me last week that she wouldn't be getting it in time for Christmas and then just on Sunday she called me and it came in and even she was surprised as Avon had said it wouldn't be here in time. I would check with my Avon lady as see what she has heard. Jen Jen where did you get yours?
