Rinks Around the League:Hey arena, it's bring back memories like hockey games in 1990's. Arena: Oh thx mate. Rinks Around the League: Wasnt a compliment.
A clarification for the part where you say we couldn’t fill the seats during the playoffs: We actually sold out every game technically. Fans just didn’t show up for I believe it was two games or so. The media chose to use the number on the game sheet for tickets scanned instead of tickets purchased.
I suppose. But it's still pretty bad if fans don't show up. With the recent news of the Sent Foundation parting ways - appears a lot is wrong with that organization.
The attendance fluctuates because of the horrible bastard owner, Eugene Melnyk I’m a die hard Bolts fan but I’ve watched videos and have talked to Sens fans saying how much they LOVE that team but DESPISE Melnyk
Patrick Kay maybe at one time but they reduced their seats because they weren’t selling enough tickets according to this globe and mail article 👇🏼 www.theglobeandmail.com/sports/hockey/ottawa-senators-reduce-canadian-tire-centre-capacity-by-1500-seats/article36200642/
the team isnt going anywhere. team makes a lot of money, its just the location that hurts the attendance. if it gets a new arena in a better location it will thrive. Team isnt relocating ever
Gotta think about the valley though. All the surrounding areas that arent too far from the city like Carleton Place, Smiths Falls, Perth, Arnprior, Calabogie etc. Those people dont want to take an hour drive to ottawa then have to do another 30mins in city traffic. You put the rink in Kanata and you get people from up to 100km away because its just highway driving to get to the game. Yeah the people in Gloucester that have like 30mins of city driving from the east end arent gunna like it but the majority of the east enders are french so they only go when Habs are in town. Theres lots of variables to the issue but as of right now im happy with the current system

Hahaha.
This arena is an exact replica of the Palace of Auburn Hills. Thats where the Pistons used to play.
Ivanna Handjahb never been to the palace and based on pics they look very similar!
Funny how the Palace was also a stadium way too far away from downtown just like Canadian tire centre
There is a typo in the description that says General info on the Bridgestone Arena. That is where the Nashville Predators play.
Ah thanks for catching that! Fixed!

The Senators did make it to the Stanley Cup final.
They lost to the Ducks.
I think he's referring to when they made the conference finals
@@MrViyasan When they lost to the Pens back in '17!!
Here's To The Impending Move To Lebreton Flats Nowadays!
Weve been cheersing to this for like 10 years 😂 maybe after Eugene dies we can have nice things.
located in Ottawa, Ontario.. not Kanata... Kanata is a suburb within the city of Ottawa
Splitting hairs a little bit. Kanata is literally down the road 2 kms. But 🤷🏻♂️
But it's not located in downtown Ottawa which hurts the attendance!!
Ottawa Senators
Came here after reading that this is the worst stadium in the league
Fancy enough to compare it to a REAL Canadian Tire.
