New York Rangers Set NHL Eastern Conference Finals Record With $2,100 Tickets

Carolina Hurricanes v New York Rangers - Game Five

New York Rangers tickets in the NHL Eastern Conference Finals average over $2,000, a league record.


Tickets to the New York Rangers’ Eastern Conference Finals series against the Florida Panthers set an NHL record on the secondary market with an average ticket price costing fans over $2,100, with just one day before the start of the series.


KEY FACTS

The average price for a ticket to the Rangers’ home game against the Panthers goes for $2,162, beating out New York’s previous three conference finals appearances, according to secondary-market ticket site TicketiQ.

By comparison, tickets during the Rangers’ 2022 series averaged $1,679—making it the second most expensive conference finals ticket price since TicketiQ started tracking ticket data over a decade ago—while Rangers 2015 conference finals tickets averaged $1,207, the third highest the site has ever tracked.

New York’s whopping average ticket price nearly doubles the cost of Dallas Stars Western Conference Finals tickets, which go for $1,181, on average, according to TicketiQ.

BIG NUMBER

$2,997. That’s the average price for a possible game seven home game in the Eastern Conference Finals, making it the most expensive game of the series. That nearly doubles the $1,567 average price for game one, and blows Florida’s home games out of the water. The average ticket price for Panthers’ home games in the series range from $717 to $977 depending on the game, with a get-in price starting at between $278 and $375.

FORBES VALUATOIN

We estimate the Rangers’ team value stood at roughly $2.65 billion as of December 2023, with an annual revenue of $265 million and a $69 million operating income—making them the second-most valuable team in the league, only behind the Toronto Maple Leafs. The Panthers, meanwhile, come in 29th on the list out of the NHL’s 32 teams, at a valuation of $775 million, revenue of $161 million and operating income of $6 million.

TANGENT

NBA Finals ticket prices have also soared, according to multiple ticket sites, with possible game one seats in Boston starting at $983, or $1,071 for a possible game one in Dallas, according to TickPick. If the Minnesota Timberwolves advance to the NBA finals, a game one home game would start at a whopping $2,140, as the team continues to turn heads on a generational playoff run.

  The Synagogue Church of all Nations (SCOAN) has countered the BBC documentary on the late Temitope Babatunde Joshua, known as TB Joshua, founder of SCOAN. SCOAN described the documentary against TB Joshua as unfounded, and that the characters interviewed in the report were unknown to the church. The church, in a statement signed by its Public Affairs Director, Mr Dare Adejumo, said the statement was aimed at disabusing public minds from the report. The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) recalls that the BBC released a highly controversial and damning documentary on the late TB Joshua on Monday, accusing him of various crimes, including rape, against some members. SCOAN said, “BBC World Services investigative unit, code-named Africa Eye, came out this week with weird and strange episodes of atrocities against the late founder of SCOAN.” It said that to investigate and publish or broadcast reports was a central kernel of journalism, but to do so outside the ethics and fundamental principles

  The NBA has suspended former San Antonio Spurs guard  Joshua Primo   for four games   ... after it says it found he exposed his private parts to multiple women. The league announced the ban on Friday morning ... saying an investigation into the free agent revealed he had "engaged in inappropriate and offensive behavior." NBA officials called his actions "conduct detrimental to the league." They did, however, note that they "did not find evidence that he engaged in any sexual or other misconduct apart from these brief exposures." "Primo maintains that his conduct was not intentional," the league said. Dr. Hillary Cauthen , Primo's former therapist, was the first to  bring the allegations  against Primo to light after she claimed last fall that he exposed himself to her on nine separate occasions. Dr. Cauthen's attorney,  Tony Buzbee , alleged the Spurs were aware of Primo's actions, but didn't take action. Cauthen went on to file

 Sky Sports were left red-faced after an on-screen graphic mistakenly introduced Chelsea defender Axel Disasi as Noni Madueke on Tuesday night. The pair were both the scoresheet as the Blues thrashed Middlesbrough 6-1 at Stamford Bridge in the second leg of the Carabao Cup semi-final to boo their place at Wembley.

Madueke is four years younger than his Chelsea teammate, plays in a different role and is English, while Disasi is French. Viewers immediately spotted the mistake and took to social media to flag up the glaring error.  Sky Sports with a huge mistake as that is Axel Disasi, not Noni Madueke,' another added, while a third described the gaffe as a 'howler'.
