I don't think you do understand the whole experience.

That is peanuts. This is not an every day hockey event. Tickets to Canada games are going for far, far more than that now. Keep in mind that $150 is getting you the best level seats, you can pay less for the upper section. (If you can manage to get tickets).

Its like going to the world cup of soccer..would you really expect to pay sport check zone prices for the games? This is the elite level international competition for hockey.

I paid $150 for a Russia vs Latvia game and I actually feel lucky that I managed to get some tickets to the event.

If you are disturbed by that check the regular prices to the gold medal game. And then check the reseller prices.
