Just to clarify things a bit.  I talked to the AD, the ticket cost was set
at that price in order to cover the costs of holding the game their.  that
site was chossen after discussions with the other sights in chicago. The first
choice, the united center, home of the blackhawks, was not available.  the
second choice, the horizon, home of the Wolves of the IHL, was also not
available.
Seven Bridges is a big improvement over the franklin park ice rink that the
flames have used in the past.
 
I will post the directions to get there tomarrow, I can't find them right now.
