The Oilers, for example, charge $37.50 at the door for their cheapest standing room ticket, $43 for the worst seat in the upper level, $95 for the best. Lower-bowl seats are $130-$251, depending on the opponent.

From what I could tell, season-ticket discounts can be as much as 40% off the walkup price.

Similar deal in Calgary: the worst upper-level seat this season was $34 at the door ($20 as a season ticket), the best upper-level seat $126 at the door ($94/game for the season).

Lower-bowl seats at the Saddledome start at $151 individually ($107 for the season) and peak at $235 ($162).

Add it all up, and fans in Edmonton and Calgary have to be paying $100/game, on average.
