A group of Philadelphia Flyers season ticketholders has agreed to settle with the team’s owner, Comcast Spectacor, and a division of the National Hockey League in a putative class action in which the ticketholders alleged Comcast breached its contract when it forced them to buy tickets to the NHL Winter Classic game separately and at a significantly higher price.
According to the class action stipulation of settlement filed Thursday in the U.S. District Court for the District of New Jersey, eligible class members will have the option of choosing, per each season ticket package they purchased, either the “orange voucher,” which is worth $45 toward concessions at the Wells Fargo Center, or the “black voucher,” which has an estimated cash value of $75 and can be redeemed for either an on-ice holiday photo of the ticketholder and six guests or the opportunity to post a personalized message on both the scoreboard during an NHL game and the Xfinity Live board following the game.
