Any idea why? Is it because the Devils are locked (and loaded) as the opponent? (versus Canes, who don’t seem to draw much road attention)First round tickets just went up 25%
What about thte long island and westchester fans?It’s amazing to me the premium a game at MSG is getting relative a game between the same opponents a few miles away at Prudential Center. Tickets to Game 3 at MSG are 150% the price of comparable seats to Game 1 at the Devil’s home ice. You would think given the substitutability between the two products that would be arbitraged away, but I guess there are a ton of Manhattan Rangers fans who will NOT travel a 15 minute train ride to Newark.

This is unfortunate, I think? I was looking to flip the game 4 tix for game 3 so I can come down and make it a whole Saturday. Also, place I stay at is crazy more expensive for a Monday night stay than Saturday which is bonkersFirst round tickets just went up 25%
I don't think you realize how long the trip can take after 10PM. The path can itself be a nightmare with some routes closing and NJ transit can also have long waits late at night. There is no chance I'd go to a game 1 at newark or any game that started at 8PM. Game 2 presuming a 7PM start is doable.Yeah I guess there are many of those too who can’t be bothered to save a few bucks taking a train ride.
I’m also exaggerating the price difference. When I first looked at seats it was on Ticketmaster where there is a sizeable difference in prices between the two venues but the prices between them are more alike on Stubhub.

Edit: SOLDLooking for two tickets to game 3. Willing to pay market prices, just want to save both us the StubHub fees.
The train ride is 20 minutes. The wait can be nearly an hour.I have…. It ends up being an extra 20 min train ride from Penn.
Isn’t that a hotel industry standard - weekends cheaper than weekdays ?Also, place I stay at is crazy more expensive for a Monday night stay than Saturday which is bonkers
NHL Teams: “Who’s the scalper now.”Any idea why? Is it because the Devils are locked (and loaded) as the opponent? (versus Canes, who don’t seem to draw much road attention)
Hmm I guess I never realized tbh. Turns out the ole lady can't go either, so now I'm finding a road partner to drive down with. Looking like it will be more of a come down, and then drive back after deal.Isn’t that a hotel industry standard - weekends cheaper than weekdays ?
If you catch everything perfectly.I have…. It ends up being an extra 20 min train ride from Penn.
Right now, round 2 game 1 slated for May 2 (tuesday) would be a home game if the isles beat the canes. So its just another reason to root against the isles.Hmm I guess I never realized tbh.

If all goes right, I hope to god the first MSG game in round 2 would be a weekend!
This is as long as there is a 7 game series right? I know that's pretty tentative. It would be crazy for a first round to not have a 7 game series at all.Right now, round 2 game 1 slated for May 2 (tuesday) would be a home game if the isles beat the canes.

I don't know if they move up the series if they all finish early. I have no expectations of the rangers winning in less than 6. If they win it'll be 6 or 7 games IMO.This is as long as there is a 7 game series right? I know that's pretty tentative. It would be crazy for a first round to not have a 7 game series at all.
Was lowkey hoping to see them play Isles in playoffs at home after seeing Game 7 vs Canes last year, but Tuesday vs Saturday..... hmm idk.
