Kenny Pfeffer of St. Jacob, Illinois, is one of our favorite Blues fans ever. Here's why.

Are you a Blues fan? Want to catch a first-round playoff game?

It'll cost you.

The most expensive matchup at this year's hockey playoffs so far is the Blues' Game 4, at Chicago versus the Blackhawks on April 23, according to a report from ticket marketplace Vivid Seats. The median ticket price is $340, a full $55 more than tickets to the second most expensive game in the first round: Game 2 between Philadelphia and New York.

But there is good news for Blues fans: Tickets for the games in Chicago are more than $100 pricier than the ones that will be played here in St. Louis.
