121, row 17 is where I sat last new year's eve for the Habs game. They've been playing that same game on new year's eve for a number of years I want to say.

The experience was first class. I would advise against getting as close to the ice as possible for this section because then it will be really tough for you to see the far right corner of the rink when the players and puck travel there.

I am an old school hockey fan, born in Brooklyn so I hated the quirks of this arena but I guess it's to get people to have fun at the games. The cheerleaders, the silly things they display on the jumbo tron, and the fans' constantly coming and going from their seat when the game is going on; Bankatlantic just reeks of poor hockey etiquette. I could teach classes on hockey etiquette. Do throw Octopus onto the ice at Joe Louis Arena...
