Getting to know the American Hockey League: Ticket prices
How do AHL ticket prices compare to the Blazers’ prices?
Ticket prices for
Triple-A American Hockey League teams vary. Some are comparable to what fans paid to watch the
Oklahoma City Blazers of the
Double-A Central Hockey League. Other prices were substantially higher, particularly the
Chicago Wolves, who compete head-to-head in a market that includes the NHL’s Blackhawks, NBA’s Bulls and NFL’s Bears in the fall and winter months.
