Top 10 Strangest NHL Arenas of All Time

[@michaelkeller5927]

Nice video, brought back memories of some of these old barns lol

[@alk61695]

No mention of Barclays Center in Brooklyn?

[@grimreapertrader6635]

No, because he's an idiot.

[@charliem9831]

Surprised the Barclay Center didn’t make the list … the with the scoreboard nowhere near center ice, the horseshoe configuration, the numerous obscure seating throughout the entire place…and the SUV that once had its own Twitter Page.

Nice list. I'd add the Ottawa Civic Centre (now TD Place Arena) - an 8500-seat arena tucked under one side of a football stadium. The Senators played their first 3.5 seasons there, and capacity was temporarily boosted to 10000. The ice surface is not actually the NHL-standard shape, featuring a 20-foot corner radius (should be 28ft) and is only 80 feet wide (should be 85). The arena still hosts the Ottawa 67s OHL (Major Junior) team and PWHL Ottawa. Weird place lol.

Don't forget the Ottawa Blackjacks!

Ottawa Civic Centre (Senators), and the Calgary Corral (Flames)

[@CityofLaffy]

Didn’t you post this already?😅

[@ikegsports1150]

Civic Arena was originally constructed for the Pittsburgh Civic Light Opera in 1961. It soon became an arena not too long after opening, with the main tenant being the AHL's Pittsburgh Hornets for about six years. The team would fold in 1967 to make way for the Penguins. As for the Civic Light Opera, they would move out in 1973.

Ottawa Civic Centre (TD Place Arena): Hey, why am i not on this list?

[@lloydfishman]

What about the old Boston Garden. The ice length was 12 feet shorter than the 200 foot regulation of the of the standard. It cut the blue line to red line distances by 6 feet each in an era where you couldn't pass across two lines. Made for difficult timing especially for a visiting team. Plus the air conditioning was awful which made the ice soft in May and June...sometimes you could see fog come up from the ice.

[@davesing]

How about the original Maple Leafs Gardens? A nondescript but towering outdoor facade, an enormous barn-box inside. Sound bounced around the cavernous interior, amplifying back on itself to create a deafening din. Among others of similar vintage, like Olympia in Detroit, Chicago Stadium and the original Boston Gardens, MLG stood out for its sheer sonic loudness.

No Barclays Center??

[@marcomacias3960]

i was wondering since the Sun plays in Connecticut why not play at the XL Center where the Whalers once played?

[@thelmatthew3850]

nice video but your interior pictures of the Edmonton Gardens are not that of the Edmonton Gardens. The Oilers never played here in the NHL but for 2 years in the WHA. There was no natural lighting of the Edmonton Gardens. In 1972 I would have been 16 years old and our family had Oilers season tickets.

The “G” Melbourne Cricket Ground in Melbourne Australia

[@mightyjerseys93]

Ummm… Petco Park in the end seems very random for a hockey video

[@grimreapertrader6635]

You lost me at the Civic Arena, and pretty much all the arenas. Total waste of time I will never get back
