Game 5 sold out: Tickets for Game 5 at Nashville Arena sold out in 20 minutes Saturday morning...
If you decide you want to go, tickets are available through the Joe Louis Arena box office or on the Detroit Red Wings website. They range from $63 U.S. to $144. “The problem down here is the economy,†said Devellano. “The auto sector is in the dumper and it’s hard to sell out a 20,000-seat arena when people have to pay their mortgages.â€
On the positive they still have 17,000 season tickets holders and as the team advances in the playoffs the later rounds sell out fast.
But the first round is always a little tougher which creates an opportunity for hockey fans here. “It would be great to see them,†Jimmy said of the Ontario fans.
I really don't know the average price or the total price range probably $29 for upper deck high seats to $130 for lower bowl.That's good to see considering what an intense series this is becoming. If there's ever the potential for those casually interested in hockey to see how exciting the game can be, this has to be it. A lot of great players on the Sharks pitted against the Forsbergized Preds.
Out of curiosity, do you know what playoff tickets go for in Nashville?
Jim Devellano, Sr. VP of the Red Wings, did not try conceal the difficulty the Wings were having in selling playoff tickets. He personally believes it's the poor economy, saying if the choice is paying for playoff tickets or your mortgage, that's not much of a choice. I don't know how today's game sold, but most expected a weekend match would do better.

Good to hear about this. Makes our city look better. Hopefully people will ease up on us now. Doubt it though.

Good news for the Preds. That said, the Canucks sold out tickets for the entire post-season in about the same amount of time, so there, neener, neener, neener
Don't count on it. The people who tend to make those arguments have little interest in facts.

They are selling them game-by-game here.

But the Predators have never averaged 8,500 per game for an entire season like the Canucks did back in 1988.
The Vancouver Canucks play in a one trick pony town. Nothing to be proud of Vancouverites.
You must be kidding. The competition for entertainment dollar in this city is insane compared to the population number.

Anyway, way to go Preds fans, this is certainly very positive news.

They are close to Washington. Maybe the Mariners, Seahawks?
