jay we still sold 99.3% of seats when we were almost last in the league.. c'mon lol


doesnt mean a thing son. Ottawa fanbase is the smallest of the Canadian teams. It's not their fault though, first generation Ottawa fans are just reaching adulthood now. In 30 years Ottawa will be bigger than Winnapeg for fanbases. Because Winnipeg won't have a team. :rofl:

Oh for sure, I'm not dogging on your team. Facts are just facts though and a non-sellout streak is a non-sellout streak. :(


fair enough
if our arena was closer to the main population we would no doubt sell out almost all of our games

At least you guys dont have a team 10 minutes from your arena. Hard to gain fans when LA had a team for so long before the Ducks

funny thing is that every1 hop jet bandwagon but 50% of the people on this forum were too young to actually have a "true passion and seen them play so much" for the team imo

no, we just hopped on the get teams out of the usa and into canada bandwagon. Having a gimped team like Winnipeg in the league increases the odds for the rest of us to see our team win the cup.

the arena is like 25km from downtown ottawa, which isnt that bad without traffic, but on a game night, its quite the commute lol
its no less than 20km for the vast majority of sens fans, but a lot of fans do live in kanata too

it's not bad, like a 25 minute drive from central ottawa

but on gameday it's a bitch to get there, driving there could take an hour because of the traffic

Vancouver has the longest sellout streak of any professional team in Canada bro. (MLB, CFL, NHL) of nearly 400 games.


I was impressed until I read this part.
