A recent study from the Action Network ranked the “best NHL stadiums for families,” looking at the total affordability for a family of four — with the Florida Panthers coming out pretty nicely when it comes to the overall cost in attending a game.
According to the report, no NHL team offered cheaper tickets during the 2023-24 season than the Florida Panthers.
A set of four tickets to your average game in Sunrise, per the Action Network report, was $194.56 — far-and-away the cheapest rate going.
Ottawa was second, about $43 more for the four tickets.
Toronto is the most expensive venue to check out an NHL game per this report with four tickets averaging a whopping $637.32 in US funds.
Overall, Amerant Bank Arena was the cheapest venue in the league aside from Arizona’s Mullett Arena which held about 4,600 at the Arizona State University.
The Coyotes, of course, moved to Utah so that number is going to shoot up.
So, too, should Florida’s number after the team won the Stanley Cup.
Do not be surprised if prices are raised across the board.
The cost of tickets have already gone up.
While the Panthers’ pricing for tickets was lowest in the NHL per this report, everything else in the study pointed to an expensive night out in Sunrise.
Based on complaints from fans about $22 for chicken tenders, this is not a surprise.
Aside from four tickets, the report also factored in the cost of two beers and two soft drinks, the cost of four hot dogs, and parking.
The Panthers are among the most expensive in the NHL when it comes to everything but tickets.
