2014 OHL Arena Experience Rankings

by Dave Cottenie - Apr 23, 2014 11:28 AM EDT

The OHL experience is one of the greatest in all of sports. Intimate arenas without the controversy of major U.S. college basketball or football. The opportunity to really see the stars of tomorrow mixed with players who just love to play the game. The energy level on the ice is unparalleled by any other hockey league in the world.

This year’s rankings are a bit of an anomaly. A temporary move has made a team go from first to worst with the Ottawa 67's temporary home in the Canadian Tire Centre. Next year's rankings have the chance to look a bit different. The 67's will move back home to their newly named TD Place Arena, and the Niagara Ice Dogs will move into their new home in St. Catharines, the Meridian Centre. The lowest score for any arena was just shy of 3, with the top score reaching just over 4. All of the experiences can be great and all are worth checking out regardless of where they feel in our ranking.

The rankings are comprised of scores from official rankings taking into consideration the rankings from members of the Stadium Journey website. Not all arenas have been reviewed by the same person. Scores are based on the Stadium Journey FANFARE rating scale. Enjoy!
