That's about all though.Even though I'm in the last row in the PL, I still love that I can see the game laterally from side to side.

Why I like sitting along the side is that of course the netting isn't in the way for one thing, but you're also not as far away from the play if its in either end. If you're behind a goalie in one end of the rink and the play is at the other, you're quite far away. You also have backs to the play quite often.
Along the side of the rink you're seemingly more in the action and not so much looking behind players. I think this is why centre ice is usually the most coveted, similar to a 50 yard line. You're always in the heart of the action. My personal preference is to pick an end and be inside the blue line along the side so you're right in the heart of an attack zone with great sight lines. But everyone has a preference and validity to their choices.
I imagine folks like behind the nets because they're of the best value for price point I believe, and if you're in the corners, the rows are much smaller as well. Our rows are quite long, 20+ per I believe. Corner rows of course are way smaller and only decrease the lower you get which must be nice.
That's about all I can think of for the moment. All seats have pros and cons, so Im sure you'll be happy with your choice come selection time regardless.
