Any hockey fans out there?

Anyone ever sit front row behind the bench? Some tickets just dropped at a great price (under 1k) and we are seriously considering it.

Will we regret the views of the game?

It’s neat to do once, but it’s really hard to see the game when you’re down that low. Front row, I prefer to be in the corners - more action there, and you can see more of the game.

We have sat low before and know about the view issues with the glass. Agree that corners are best and in fact i feel like front row corner is probably the best seat in the house where you get to watch the game develop just like the players do.

We have always thought it would be cool to be right at the bench and see the interactions on the bench but im worried about views from coaches and players blocking view.

Doesn't matter. They sold in under an hour as I figured. The price was a steal

I find the scheduling this year unbalanced. The Philly/Hurricanes series is onto game 3 and the Buffalo/Montreal series hasn't even started yet, WTF. You're giving one team maybe 3-5 days rest while their opponent is halfway through their series.

It likely depends on the rink, but the one time I was right behind the bench (during “the lost years” for the Canes when they sucked and were practically giving tickets away), it was really hard to see given all the coaches and staff are standing up right in front of you.

We got the hotel booked and our dogs figured out on who is going to watch them. We are all setup to go to St. Paul except for buying the tickets. Prices are holding steady at about 400-600 for the vast majority of the tickets and there is an inventory of over 2k listed at the moment so we aren't in a rush. Will probably wait until a great deal shows up like those behind the bench and jump when they do.
