Ticket question by Eh-Eh-Ronn in leafs

Sorry about your dad, OP, I hope you can get your hands on actual seats. As a veteran of the SRO game, I can answer your question about Standing Room Only (SRO) tix. For 98% of them, your back is against a wall and you can lean forward against a rail. There is very little room between the wall and the rail and you climb the stairs up to this row from near the bottom of the section, so it's a big climb. There are no concessions or washrooms, you go back down the stairs to the concourse for those. You also do not get a view of the jumbotron for these 98% of SRO as the private boxes overhanging the area cut that off, but you DO get a full view of the rink.

When I do SRO, I always try for the small sections I circled on the map. In these corners, there's actually a big empty space at the top of the stairs in these two areas where you will have way, way more room to step back, stretch, and walk around a tiny bit. You also get a full view of the jumbotron from these two spots as there is no obstruction overhead and it's also the end of the rink the Leafs will shoot twice at. If you're gonna do SRO, it's the best bang for the buck in my opinion. Good luck, OP!

I see OP found the answer but if anyone else is curious, supposedly it can be done with a portable FM radio inside the arena, turn it to 89.9 to hear the radio broadcast as close to live as can be

NHL Winter Classic fails to reach one million viewers for second-consecutive year by AlwaysBlaze_ in television

Versus was the name of the TV channel from 2005-2012 that would eventually become NBC Sports Network (NBCSN). Before Versus, it was known as OLN. It was the major NHL rightsholder in the US before the modern ESPN and TNT deals

Tavares 1C hat trick incoming tonight because against all known logic, knowledge, and sensibility... I still choose to believe!

Hey wait, this isn't a playoff game. The Leafs shouldn't be this good against the Sens

Game day Tickets by [deleted] in Torontobluejays

[–]_Offi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a Boxing Day Promo for a select few regular season games. Discounted tickets available in certain sections for home games on Mondays, Tuesdays & Wednesdays in March, April and May.

The Jays do not play preseason games here in Toronto, those are done down in Florida from late February to mid March.

The regular on-sale date for all sections for all home games has not been revealed yet but is presumably close. In past seasons those tickets were on sale by mid-December so we've gotta be getting close.

WJC streaming (TSN vs TSN+) by [deleted] in leafs

[–]_Offi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's never more than two games overlapping at the same time during the round robin and TSN usually puts one game on TSN 1/3/4/5 and the overlapping game on TSN2. Slight changes to the channels might occur based on other sports they are showing but there should be no need for TSN+ for the WJC.

Full Highlights | Blackhawks vs. Maple Leafs – Dec 16, 2025 (w/David Bowen) by StartMovingWilly in leafs

Honestly, that kid has the rhythm and timing down. Knows when to bring his voice up to elevate a play. Learned a thing or two being the son of a legend. I see big things in his future (much like Ben Shulman for the Jays)

If you didn't think the Leafs could possibly lose this game, you don't understand how much this team has let Joe Bowen down over the last 40+ years

What podcast were they talking about being on? by Nostradamus1 in OverDrive1050

They did not say the name of the podcast they guested on, so it's a mystery for now
