Thanks for all the help everyone! I ended up getting a relative decent deal all things considering. Going section 118 (Flames attack end twice) row 18. Got them off NHL ticket exchange as they were listed for $200 ea. Of course by the time your done with this BS "service charge" it was $245 ea.
Some of these prices were like $150+ for nosebleeds. The prices on Stubhub, which are in USD almost made me want to throw up. LOL.
I have seen a handful of games in Edmonton and its always the same tune, small selection left for crazy prices. I do hand it to the fan base there, they pay dam good money to see that disaster of a team up there year after year. I am a dire hard Flames fan but I don't know how much $$$ I would be able to shell out for seasons tickets year after year with the results they have seen up north.
The Flames market is vastly different I find, much more corporate with plenty of handouts being given and free tickets. One of the biggest things these days is companies giving out free tickets to lower tiered employee's who wouldn't normally get the companies seats. This way the executives and VP's who frequently get these tickets don't need to worry about expenses at the game. Dinner+ drinks in the club section could easily run $1000 if your drinking a fair amount for 6 people.
In any event hopefully a good game and we pull out the win!
