Gophers Hockey: Hockey City Classic tickets go on sale Tuesday

With 87 more days until the Gophers drop the puck at TCF Bank Stadium, the box office opened up for sales to the Hockey City Classic on Tuesday.

The event is set to take place on Jan. 17, 2014 and will feature two games: the Gopher women will open play versus Minnesota State at 4:30 p.m. CT followed by the men’s team, who will play Ohio State at 8 p.m. CT. Tickets range from $15 to $125.

The event will be the first time hockey has been played outdoors at the University of Minnesota in 80 years. It’s being organized by Intersport, a Chicago-based sports and entertainment marketing agency that was responsible for last February’s Hockey City Classic at Solider Field in which the Gophers played the Wisconsin Badgers.
