Really, lots of wasted space, and way overpriced beer.
20+ years in Calgary, went to a few games there, even drove down for a few, liked that experience over Rogers place.

Rogers Place is kind of funny to me. It is, objectively, a nice arena. And light years ahead of the urine-soaked Northlands Coliseum. But I've been to so many NHL rinks now that I likewise was not blown away. Edmonton did nothing that I haven't seen three times before, and the 2nd level seats are ridiculously cramped for a modern facility.
I suspect I'll be similarly jaded when our own new rink gets built, though obviously it being home will make a big difference.
