I've had a lot of success in the past buying last minute tickets for games, but earlier this season Stubhub started closing sales 30 minutes after gametime as opposed to at gametime, which has hurt the last minute deals somewhat. Also, it's the finals, so anything that we know about tickets seems to be out the window as judged by the insane prices... I'd guess they will drop, but how much? Who knows.

Completely agree. Always in the past prices dropped, but this is uncharted to me at least. It's funny, even just a year ago, I would be on line at MSG right now trying to get tickets at cost, but with wife AND baby, no way. My
Kid wakes up 305948293905837 times a night. My wife would kill me lol. I'd easily pay a thousand just to get in(surprisingly she wouldn't kill me for that though...).

Welcome to the forum. How old is your kid...mine is 11 weeks tomorrow. Fortunately I've got seasons...waiting on line isn't in the cards for me either. lol
I'd think that if you're willing to pay 1K to get in, you'll find something last minute that's decent(that's basically the get in for obstructed 400s right now on Stubhub, and GordonGecko on here is selling a single in the 400s full view for $950 if that interests you).
Edit: Welcome to the forum!

I imagine Chicago winning would have been better for sellers. Distance and airfare. Just a guess though.
Regular season, Chicago fetched a lot more than the kings if I remember correctly so that would be my guess too. Then again, this is like the Ws so geography shouldn't matter.

Well, there goes the Chicago idea. Between a flight to LA, a hotel, food, etc, you're better off just paying MSG prices if you're at home. Going to make the flight home for a quick two day trip. Looking for one ticket. Message me what you've got.
How many single game tickets do you guys think will go on sale tomorrow? About 100-150 for each game?

me too, but I'm not really feeling a mid week cross country trip and I'm busy this weekend. Might make myself if there's a game 7
Problem with game 7 is that you can't really make flight plans until after game 6. On short notice, you are either paying bug bucks for a flight or using double miles which is ok for some.
Personally? I can go out to LA anytime for biz so I had the foresight of picking up game 7 tix when they were relatively cheap. What I did not have foresight on was my 11 yr old's graduation in on that evening so there goes that plan. At least I can make so $$ on them.
These are premier 1 club seats row 7. I paid $1k each for them. They are now >$2k on SH. I sell them here for $1500. Pm me if you are interested. Obviously refund if no game 7.
But iirc, LA was early in the year when we weren't so hot and Chicago was first game after the Olympic break. Who knows?

Broadwayblue, my kids 10 months. Awesome kid, but just a miserable sleeper lol. Good luck and enjoy every second.
I was going to pull trigger on Chicago seats Saturday; they were 700 standing room and flight with hotel from wed morning to thurs morning was around 400. Kind of glad I didn't now lol.
See this series going 5-6. We still have a chance but def think matchup with Hawks was ideal. Ticket wise, gotta hope kings jump out to early lead if you wanna grab game 6 at lower cost than now. If magically they went anywhere below 1K, I'd be stoked.

Maybe a final batch of scraps being released to us insignificant peons? Honestly, if be amazed if ticketmaster even sold any for face value. I swear they hold thousands and just release them as second hand and set the after market price themselves.
It's not ticketmaster who dictate that. The Rangers do.
They do.
Entered. Fingers crossed.

Idk what the deal is with the onsale at noon. There were people lined up outside MSG inside the gates they set up I guess waiting for tickets. I just saw someone tweet out too that their rep said nothing is going to be put out through Ticketmaster either. Anyone have a better idea of what's going on?
I don't think anyone had any idea. They are purposely keeping everyone in the dark.
