Depends on how they charge it doesn't it? If they don't include it in the actually ticket price and then add it as a surcharge (which is probably likely), they'll list ticket prices as lower than you're actually paying.

I doubt the Flames take the Ticketmaster fees into account when setting their own prices.

EDIT: just noticed your edit saying pretty much what I said.
