For hockey fans in Edmonton, the anticipation is high as Games 3, 4, and, if needed, 6 are scheduled to take place right in their hometown.
However, for those eager to secure their seats, the journey to the game won't come cheap. Resale sites like StubHub and SeatGeek have already listed tickets, but they come with a hefty price tag.
