Great venue! Attended a Bruins/Canadiens game and was blown away by the experience - so much better than the TD Garden. Hockey is the show at the Bell Centre and there isn't a lot of nonsense like most areas.
Observations:
1) Many beer options; most go w/ the 16oz Molson EX cans for ~$7.50 and these are available from vendors in the stands. 25oz Molson M cans are also available at select locations, but are $12ea!
2) Bathrooms are HUGE, but are mostly hallways and not many urinals. Strange
3) That one player on the opposing team who the fans have decided to boo. Every single time he touches the puck. Every time.
4) Very rare for people to get up during the periods; most wait until the intermissions.
5) Brutally difficult to get tix. Had to pay 100% mark up.
