OT: Going to Prague

[finchster]

Hello, I am going to Prague February 19th -25th and as I understand the KHL and Extraliga seasons are over. I have a few questions; One, when do the KHL/Extraliga playoffs start? Two, if the playoffs have started, how much are tickets? Three, can you buy tickets before the game or is it better to buy in advance (risk of a sellout)? If anyone can help I would appreciate it.

Extraliga season ends on 26th.

KHL, play-off schedule in ENG here

If Lev Prague makes play off, they will play on 24th, 25th in Prague.

If Lev Prague does not make play off, they will participate at play-out. Schedule is not revealed.

Dont know about tickets, not revealed yet, I dont think it will differ from regular season (cca 10-20 USD).
Nobody knows where Lev Prague will play play-off - O2 arena is an option, club played regular season in Tipsport. I dont expect sell-outs. IMO you will buy a ticket a few hours before game, but you will not get the best seats

EDIT:
It is known now that Lev will play play-off in Tipsport

Extraliga:
19.2. 18:30 Sparta Praha - Vitkovice
24.2. 18:10 Slavia Praha - Zlin

if you want to travel a bit:
22.2. 17:30 Kladno - Plzen

I will also be in Prague. Arriving morning of 16th, leaving morning of 23rd. Already bought tickets to a Sparta game. We went to see Slavia last time.

I am staying right near the touristy-square in Prague. Does anyone know of any bars that stay open late enough and show NHL games? Interested primarily in the Rangers-Caps game on the 17th. 6pm start in NY, so I guess a midnight start in Prague? Rangers-Canadiens on 19th and Rangers-Senators on 21st.

thanks

Were you the guy wearing the Rangers hat that I told, "rangers suck" between periods? Haha

At first I didn't know who to support, but Vitkovice started doing the "Ole" chant (stupid habs), it was over I was firmly supporting Sparta Praha.








Sparta wins 4-2 and they shake hands at the end of the game.
