The Toronto Maple Leafs are joining other NHL teams and clubs in other sports in beginning a dynamic pricing policy for tickets to their games, based on the opponent and when it’s being played.

The prices will be divided into five different categories: Super Premium, Premium Plus, Premium, Regular and Preseason.

For instance, a seat in the “green” price point could range from $90 (Regular) to $125 (Super Premium) depending on who the Leafs play. The Leafs home opener against Ottawa on Sat. Oct. 5 is Super Premium as is a Sat. Oct. 26 date against Sidney Crosby and the Pittsburgh Penguins. But Mon. Nov. 25 against Columbus is in the Regular category.

It won’t impact season ticket holders who still pay the same total amount for their package, but it will affect fans who buy tickets for single games.

MLSE had already raised ticket prices by 2.5 per cent across the board for this season.

The Toronto Raptors have had a dynamic pricing policy for two seasons with games against the L.A. Lakers costing a lot more than games against the Charlotte Bobcats for the same seats.

The Blue Jays charge more for games against the Yankees and Red Sox, weekends and the home opener.
