(RNN) – The games may be played on ice, but the tickets for this year’s Stanley Cup are red hot.
In their inaugural season, the Vegas Golden Knights are four wins away from claiming the NHL championship and fans in Sin City are psyched.
The average price for tickets for the first two home games in Las Vegas is $1,700, according to secondary-market ticket broker Vivid Seats. The cheapest seats can be had for $600 and up. The most-expensive single tickets are more than $8,000. You can pick up a suite for about $42,000.

Although pricey, the Stanley Cup tickets are still less than some of America’s biggest sporting events.
An average ticket for the last College Football Playoff National Championship game went for $2,400. For the last Super Bowl, the figure was more than $5,500.
The finals start on Monday. The Golden Knights will play the winner of the Tampa Bay Lightning - Washington Capitals series.
Rewrite the history books.
