You can see every inch of the ice from the seats in 410. We purchased seats in the 2nd row, row b for a Coyotes game which was one of the last teams I wanted to see but I had a strong feeling that Canadiens fans would treat it like a playoff game and make it fun for everyone.
I saw essentially no Coyotes fans in the arena and why would you in Canada?
Sitting behind the net allows you to see all four corners. I have been to NHL games in a number of arenas and I would say that the endzone sections are always better than the sideline sections.
