I don't have much to compare it to, but I'm definitely not alone in saying this is one of the greatest places to watch hockey. The 5000+ seat arena is designed so that pretty much every seat is close to the action, and it really contains the noise to make for an exciting environment. The Irish hockey team has been pretty good the last few years, and more recently, the Chicago Blackhawks have started training camp here. If you have a chance to catch a game here, do it.
