The highly anticipated 2023 Stanley Cup Final between the Florida Panthers and the Vegas Golden Knights is poised to kick off this Saturday.

The Golden Knights will have the advantage of home ice as the series begins in Las Vegas. However, facing the Panthers, who have emerged as a captivating Cinderella story, raises the question of whether home ice advantage will prove beneficial or detrimental to the Golden Knights' quest for the Cup.

Ticket prices for the thrilling Cup Final games have been unveiled, revealing an interesting twist. Despite trailing the Columbus Blue Jackets in terms of average home attendance this season, the Panthers will host Games 3 and 4 of the series. Matt Levy of the New York Post disclosed the ticket costs, and it's safe to say they are far from affordable. While Panthers fans could easily secure tickets for as low as $20 during the regular season when attendance was lower, the Stanley Cup Final brings an entirely different price range.

The cheapest tickets available at the time of publication were priced at $349 before fees at Las Vegas's T-Mobile Arena. In Sunrise, FL's FLA Live Arena, ticket prices start at $424 before fees. Seat prices in Florida can surge to a staggering $830 or even more, and for the ultimate Game 7 experience, fans may need to be prepared to pay a whopping $1747.

Although the high ticket prices may make attending the Stanley Cup Final seem unattainable for many fans without substantial financial resources, the allure of the prestigious Cup guarantees sold-out games. The Stanley Cup is a cherished prize, and despite the steep costs, fans will undoubtedly fill the arenas, eager to witness the pinnacle of hockey competition.
