At that time of the year it is hard to say what teams will even still be playing or where the games will be held. Late round playoff games tend to be very expensive.
I am travelling from far and would love to go and watch an Ice Hockey game with my girlfriend in the week before or after Bonnaroo.
I searched on NHL.com and it seems like May/June is the time of the playoffs as far as the Stanley Cup goes.
My question is twofold.
1. Is there any chance in hell I will be able to get tickets? If so how much do they usually go for?
2. Am I on the wrong wavelength? Where else should I be looking?
I haven't checked, but I doubt there are many "I'm flying from South Africa and would like to see a hockey game" threads, so don't worry about starting your own.
First you should probably say where you'll be staying (cities) and from when until when.
The NHL is in the playoffs during May/June, so it's really dependent on what teams make it there, but you'll also be paying a lot of $ because playoff game tickets are more expensive.
If youre lucky the Nashville Predators will make a push for the finals and you might be able to catch a game in Nashville. Tickets woudlnt be cheap, but it would be worth every penny to experience an NHL playoff game. Even though a playoff ticket wouldnt be cheap, they would be much cheaper in Nashville than compared to other markets and you probably have more of a chance to get your hands on a few. If you can afford it Id plan my trip to start in either New York, Boston, Detroit or Vancouver if youre hoping to see some good playoff hockey

I know two years ago I was looking at going to a Flyers game the week before Roo, either the conference finals or Stanley Cup I can't remember which. I think there was one game in Philly I could have made but the cheapest ticket was about $300 and anything in the middle of the rink was $800+.
There will be NHL hockey being played somewhere in North America the two weeks but it is impossible to say where it will be at this point. Chances are it will be pricey though.
I got a ticket to Game 1 of the Eastern Conf Finals last year. It set me back about 150 bucks, and that was for the third to the last row in the building. Anything close to the ice will at least double that price, if not more.
If it's the Rangers, forget it. You might have to sell organs on the black market.
