31 of 31: Sold-out first-round playoff games, through Thursday night.

$378: The most-expensive ticket available on the secondary market for an NHL playoff game this weekend, for Game 5 of the Rangers-Flyers series at Madison Square Garden on Sunday afternoon, according to ticket price aggregator TiqIQ.

$148: The least-expensive ticket available, for Game 5 of the Ducks-Stars series at the Honda Center tonight.
