All preseason games will be available, as will tickets to regular-season games, not including the NHL Stadium Series game against the Nashville Predators in February, at Nissan Stadium in Nashville, Tennessee.

Second-hand tickets for the Lightning’s home opener on October 12th against the Pittsburgh Penguins are currently no less than $200 in the 300’s section of Amalie Arena to see the second Stanley Cup champions banner being raised to the rafters. Needless to say, this should be your opportunity.

Of course, the NHL has the scheduled two-week break in February to account for the Olympics, although the league and NHLPA have not fully committed to participating. You should be aware of some notable games before tickets go on sale if you are not planning to attend multiple games, such as a potential Stanley Cup Final matchup that takes place early in the season when the Avalanche comes to Amalie Arena on October 23rd. A rematch of the Eastern Conference Finals on November 13th against the Islanders. A tug on the heartstrings when Yanni Gourde will return to Tampa on November 24th for the first time since being selected by the Kraken in the Expansion Draft. To end the calendar year, the Canadiens return to Amalie Arena for the first time since the Lightning won Game 5 of the Stanley Cup Finals last season, on December 28th.

As you would expect, tickets directly from Ticketmaster will most likely sell quickly, so have your accounts ready, card updated, and any other information required, or you may be on the receiving end of purchasing second-hand tickets at a higher price.

See you in Thunder Alley!
