The Vancouver Canucks are currently the worst team in the NHL.
Although they’ve largely been a non-playoff threat for most of the past decade, fans have continued to support the team by attending games.
If ticket prices are any indication, that is beginning to change.
Earlier this month, the Canucks offered student rush tickets starting at $49, which was far cheaper than the advertised prices earlier this season.

Student rush tickets were available for as low $30 per ticket when the program was introduced back in 2019, but discounted tickets spiked drastically back in January when they were available for $179.
The plummeting price is one indication that it’s getting harder to fill out Rogers Arena, but another big indication is the fact that tickets on the resale market are dropping as well.
Back in August, there weren’t many single-game tickets to watch the Canucks available for under $100.
While the Canucks themselves haven’t lowered the prices of your average single-game ticket, it looks like prices have dropped drastically on the resale market.
Ahead of the Canucks game against the Buffalo Sabres on Thursday night, fans could watch the Canucks for as low as $60.27 per ticket.
The price of an unsold ticket for the game is $99 for seats in the sections that don’t permit alcohol, and $109 for alcohol permitted sections.
According to resale ticket marketplaces like StubHub, there are lots of tickets available for the Canucks and Sabres match in the upper bowl for under $100.

The Canucks match against the Sabres isn’t a one-off either.
In January, there are plenty of resale tickets available for non-marquee matchups against the New York Islanders and the Anaheim Ducks that are below $100.
The cheapest ticket to see the Bo Horvat and the Islanders on Jan. 19 is $67.65 on Ticketmaster.

Unsold tickets are nearly double the price.
The cheapest ticket to see the Canucks and Islanders next month is $116 for a section in the corner of the upper bowl, where alcohol isn’t permitted. For sections that permit alcohol, the least expensive unsold ticket is $129.
Fan apathy is clearly setting in among the Canucks faithful, and we’ll see if that begins to affect actual ticket sales.
The Canucks haven’t dipped below an average attendance of 18,000 in a season since 2001-02, aside from the 2021-22 season, where attendance was hampered by COVID-19 restrictions.
During the depths of the Mark Messier, Mike Keenan era, average attendance for Canucks games hit a low of 14,641 per home contest in 1999-00.
