I went to the Panthers vs Senators game last year in Ottawa. What a horrible experience that was. The arena is in the middle of nowhere. The closest pregame stuff to do was a 5 minute drive away in a strip mall. Even though it was a Saturday night game, I would estimate there was about 2000 empty seats. Nobody made any noise, so it felt exactly like a library. And any true hockey fans couldn't stop talking about the Leafs or Canadiens, because that was their "real" team.
