Default Playoff ticket prices?

I haven't been to a playoff game in years. What kind of prices are we looking at? Is it say 30% more than what one would pay for the same sections during the regular seasons? And prices go up each series?

What would say the cost of sec 227 row 18 be from ticket master vs cost to season ticket holders?

TIA

Im curious about this too...Wasn't living here last time they were in the playoffs and never been to a playoff game. Should I realistically think I might be able to go to the first round for 1 game or are the tickets going to be doubled. Im assuming most season ticket holders on here won't be parting with their tickets on here for the playoffs

Season ticket holder here, haven't heard anything just yet. It's my first year as a STH so I'm curious myself -- I'll let you guys know if I hear anything.

I honestly think that it might be easier to find tickets at a reasonable price if the Flames make the postseason this year in comparison to two years ago.

I just don't feel there is too much hype this year and with the economy, I doubt too many people will want to spend $300 for nosebleed tickets.

My buddy received his Oilers playoff ticket prices. 46% increase in round 1 (our equivalent of greens). I believe Calgary was about 20% two years ago.

Oilers gouging their season ticket holders as a reward to oiler fans waiting 10 years.. E=NG

Haven't heard anything from the Oilers or the Flames, the Oilers did have their renewal come out for the new year, they do have the $100 Oiler Bucks coming back which is nice to see again.

Yes they do, unless you were in the hot house and just signed up last week, then they do not guarantee your spot but they guarantee you get in the same price range.

I'm flying in to Calgary on April 2 so my only hope of tickets is a playoff game.

I took my son to his first game against the Kings (lost in OT) and he loved it.

Would love to take him to a playoff game. What are my chances?

My greens two years ago were about a 50% markup in round 1 so what the Oiler's are doing is right on par with what we can expect this year I think.

Thanks guys. I am on the waiting list for ST and the hot house email offered a chance for playoff tickets. Will see what kind of prices they will be. As mentioned above not same deal as STH would get. May be I will sell two, go to one, or go to the cup final games :-)

Well if anyone will be selling I will be looking to try and go to one game. Can't see myself affording much more than that but it would be nice to cross that off the bucket list.

In 2015, the price I paid as a season ticket holder for my Red 2's went up 54% from the regular season to Round 1, and jumped every round after that too.

2015 Regular Season Cost was $108. 2015 Round 1 was $167.

I don't know what the increase was from the face value of the regular season to Round 1 playoffs.

The email stated otherwise (saying pay as you go is an option), but when you go in it seems to give an actual total due for both the rounds.

It does give a total for both rounds, but then gives you the choice to pay for 2 rounds in full at once, or pay as we play. I chose pay as we play and got them secured!
