Ottawa Senators History

The original Ottawa Senators were founded in 1883 and were one of the founding teams of the NHL during its early years, winning 11 Stanley Cup Championships between 1903 and 1927. When the NHL started to expand to the U.S., the Senators were sold to St. Louis and became the Eagles, but the team shuttered after one year. The second incarnation of the Senators joined the NHL in 1992. The Senators have since gone on to make the Stanley Cup Playoffs 16 times.

    Hockey night in Ottawa

    by Old dad on 1/30/24Canadian Tire Centre - Kanata

    Took my 10 and 12 yrs old daughters to see NY Rangers play Ottawa Senators. This is their 1st NHL game. We had a great time. Staffs were wonderful.

    Go Bruins!

    by Uncle Goofy on 1/29/24Canadian Tire Centre - Kanata

    This was a great experience with one exception. Great venue, great seats, parking, everything A-Plus. Except one detail. I drove 11 hours from Southern NB to see this game, so pretty excited for a first time visit to CTC. Seats in 322, M 20/21... great view, but... No crowd control. Zero. NADA. No Ushers controlling traffic during play so 40 minutes out of 60 watching people walk up and down the stairs in front of me blocking my view. What the hell? People are rude I get that. A few actually waited for the whistle. But the ones that lack hockey viewing etiquette are supposed to be controlled by ushers. They control movement in Montreal, Boston and Toronto so frankly I was quite disappointed that the Ushers did nothing in Ottawa. It is common courtesy to move during stoppages and not during play. Everything else A-Plus and I got my Goalie Hug so in the end I'll be back. Just some constructive criticism.

    Expensive experience to bring a family of 4.

    by Tom on 1/23/24Canadian Tire Centre - Kanata

    Very expensive concessions. Not reasonable for anyone with kids trying to enjoy a hockey game. It was considered “kids take over day” and if the kid wasn’t heard of the loud speaker you’d have no idea it was a kids day. The mascot and entertainer that were pumping up the crowd spent a majority of the time in the first level where a lot of corporate seats are located and not up in the upper tiers where the families can afford.

    Go Sens Go

    by Pontiacgirl on 1/16/24Canadian Tire Centre - Kanata

    Great game but my seat had no cushioning. I was in the first row on second level and was literally on the edge of my seat so I could see the game.

    Nickle and dimed

    by PJ on 12/15/23Canadian Tire Centre - Ottawa

    Performance on the ice is never a guarantee, but value for your money should be. Price of tickets are not exactly cheap, concession prices are sky high, and add additional charges just to park a car (for a price higher than nose bleed tickets) appears to be counterintuitive to increasing the fan base. Seating in premium seats come with an excellent in seat service, but charging an automatic gratuity and having a check out process that "encourages"adding a tip on top of a tip is not right. Yes the small print of the menu talks about gratuity and service charges, but who reads the small print when ordering food and drinks. Stop making the cost of the game the reason people don't go. There are enough challenges with the on ice performance (consistency), don't make the whole experience something to forget.

    Ok venue but parking / traffic not ok

    by Cher W on 12/10/23Canadian Tire Centre - Ottawa

    I purchased tickets for my family and I to see the Leafs play Ottawa - in Ottawa. I didn’t expect it to be the same vibe as Toronto because they are an away team. However, we were all greatly disappointed with just trying to get to the arena parking lot. We left early even, to sit in the car at a roundabout for 45mins. By the time we parked and got in to our seats we had missed the first period of the game. It was a frustrating bottleneck situation that really needs to be worked on. It was a great game, no complaints about that, however again on the way out of the arena - another bottleneck in which we had 30min of waiting in the car before anyone moved. We do expect that on the way out as we are all leaving the same time, but missing 1/3 of the game because of poor engineering, was not something I was expecting. So if you’re a leafs fan, I recommend Toronto Scotiabank arena rather than catching a game in Ottawa. Tickets might be a little More $$ but it’s worth it just for the parking lot experience alone and missing some of the game.

    Birthday tickets

    by Sarah on 11/30/23Canadian Tire Centre - Ottawa

    Purchased tickets for my fiancés birthday and all in all it was a fun experience because we never attend games! I was reminded, however, when we got there and couldn’t get a drink or food for under 15$ EACH… why we don’t go ahaa. Fun though for a special occassion!

    I really enjoyed the game!

    by Meils on 11/16/23Canadian Tire Centre - Ottawa

    This was me and my family’s first NHL game, and it did not disappoint! We had such a great evening. We were able to enter and find our seats easily. The host always engaged the crowd during TV timeouts as well as intermissions. It truly was s great experience, and I can’t wait for my next game.

    Go Sens!!

    by Fletch on 11/14/23Canadian Tire Centre - Ottawa

    First trip north of the border to see a hockey game in years. Picked the Senators as I have always wanted to see Ottawa as well. Neither disappointed. Good seat - nice arena. As always, getting out of the parking lot after the game was a miserable experience. Hopefully I'll be back to catch another game.

    Anderson retires

    by Kimber on 10/27/23Canadian Tire Centre - Ottawa

    What a great night to be at a game. Having Craig Anderson back even for 1 night to sign a contract so that he could retire as an Ottawa Senator says alot about the team and its players. The boys fought hard to get a win was a great night out for sure
