You won't believe how much tickets are for the Blue Jackets-Wild New Year's Eve game

Ever since the Columbus Blue Jackets and Minnesota Wild entered the NHL back in 2000, no one ever thought a ticket to see the two play against each other would be the hottest ticket in the league. Fast forward sixteen years later and the two franchises are the talk of the league.

The Blue Jackets and Wild enter their New Year’s Eve game against each other on historic streaks. Columbus enters Saturday’s game on a 14-game winning streak, while Minnesota heads into the game on a 12-game winning streak. With that being said, the price of tickets to the game have skyrocketed and are going for ridiculous amounts on sites such as StubHub, Vivid Seats and SeatGeek.

On StubHub, tickets start as low as $160 USD and go as high as $1,500.00 USD.

Vivid Seats doesn’t go as high as the other two sites, as their highest ticket for sale is listed at $457 USD, but their cheapest ticket is selling for $166 USD.

Columbus and Minnesota are not similar markets to Toronto so they actually sell tickets to the games at decent, affordable prices. This meeting will be the first of two between the Wild and Jackets, but the tickets to their game later next year in March are currently re-selling for a much better price.

It's a shame that one of the teams is going to have their streak ended before the calendar year is over.
