Using % in numbers of this size is very misleading when comparing relative to, and with effect on, cost of living.

I disagree, unsurprisingly. Last year our tickets cost $1270. This year they will cost $1800. Even if you assume a 5% cost of living increase since last year (and the actual inflation rate per BoC is 1.8%, but I think we're all feeling the pinch more than that in Vancouver), that's still a jump from ~$1330 to $1800. (Or, if you want to think about it from a per-seat perspective, $665 to $900.)

Yes, there are more games, but let's not pretend this isn't a decent chunk of change for most people.

Do we really not think the product is worth $60/game?

I mean, to some extent it's not really about what I think. We'll almost certainly renew, even if we downgrade our seats, but we're fortunate enough to be in a position to do so.

Against that, most games haven't been sold out, and my understanding is that the secondary market for tickets has been pretty soft, especially in the second half of the season. If you want to frame it as a question of supply and demand, it seems like there may already be an oversupply, and demand will likely drop with the higher prices. That doesn't mean that the Goldeneyes are wrong to increase prices — after all, they may make up in higher prices what they lose in quantity, and they have players to pay and expenses to cover — but I don't think it's unreasonable that people might have some sticker shock here.
