The Caps just started preseason, but sales are already skyrocketing for what could be Alex Ovechkin's final regular-season game at Capital One Arena (April 12).
Why it matters: Retirement rumors around the NHL's all-time goal scorer are driving up seat prices, as first reported by Washingtonian.
State of play: Tickets for the match against the Pittsburgh Penguins are nearly three times as expensive as other regular-season games, via Ticketmaster.
Lowest-price seats are $375, while verified resale tickets on the main concourse shoot up over $1,467.
Yes, but: Ovechkin, who turned 40 last week, says he's still undecided on hanging up his skates.
Fans have 41 home games — including 18 on weekends — to catch Ovi in action, starting Oct. 8 vs. the Boston Bruins.
