If you're a procrastinator, you still may be able to get tickets to the Columbus Blue Jackets' home opener tomorrow night.
The team opens up the 2017-18 season against the New York Islanders on Friday night at Nationwide Arena and, for you last-minute types, there are options available — but it looks like they'll be selling quickly.
As of 11:30 p.m. ET last night, Ticketmaster showed hundreds of tickets available from non-resale sites. The team will eventually sell the game out with numbers that close, but it is fascinating considering the hype around the team. It should also be noted that the Blue Jackets started their Student Rush ticket sales program yesterday, two days before the game.
After a strong season with record-setting numbers, the anticipation for the Blue Jackets this season has been palpable all summer. The cheapest option you can grab on Ticketmaster (at resale price) is $38. On the flip side, you can grab a seat in the lower bowl that is also a resale ticket for $300.
Eliminating the resale market on Ticketmaster moves the price range to $61-$255. These tickets range from the upper bowl to the lower bowl, and even to the club level.
