By Parker White
The St. Louis Blues were able to win on the road in Game 5 of the Stanley Cup Finals against the Boston Bruins, and they'll be looking to win their first-ever championship on Sunday in Game 6 at home.
If you want to go to the game, however, you better have saved your pennies.

According to prices at Ticket IQ, Game 6 is on average the most expensive Stanley Cup game this decade, and it's the second-most expensive game (only behind Game 7 of the 2016 World Series) among the four major North American sports over the same span of time.

According to sports business reporter Darren Rovell, the cheapest ticket for Game 6 went for $2,438.36 on StubHub. That's a hefty price tag, and I'm sure that seat isn't up against the glass.
We're assuming the city of St. Louis is throwing and and every hesitation they have about money out the window to potentially watch their Blues hold the cup in front of their home crowd.
