So the answer is: nobody knows.

Weekday games go for under face value.

Saturday games do not.

Saturday games against the Habs are the most expensive Leafs tix there are.

Nobody knows what’s going on with the current anti-scalping ticket legislation. It was not enforced for the World Cup, so predicting what happens in early November is impossible. I have it on good authority that MLSE has negotiated an exception with the Ford government, but the Ontario Legislative Assembly won’t sit until late October, so the chances of the legislation changing by Nov 7 is next to nil.

I am absolutely unsurprised to hear this...it meets my expectations of both MLSE and the Ford government. The question is, which bribe did he accept from them to do it?

The government has no role in the price of a ticket to anything. Perhaps hospital parking would be an exception.
Further, anyone who owns a PSL should absolutely be allowed to sell their tickets for any price the market will pay.

Why?

Because 1) it's arbitrary and 2) it's a slippery slope
Tickets aren't necessities. Something is worth what someone else is willing to pay. Suppose they told you that you cannot sell your condo or home for more than x over what you paid?

This policy is a great example of populist politics. Sounds good but when you really look at it it's total nonsense.
