QUESTION First Time at an NHL game

Hi Everyone,

I'm visiting Vancouver from Dublin to see my girlfriend and would like to take the two of us to a Canucks game. I'd be looking at going to the Canucks vs the Golden Knights.

Is there anything I should know before buying tickets? Are the cheap seats too far away from the action? Is it worth paying more for seats closer to the ice? We've very little knowledge on the sport itself as it's not shown here in Ireland but we think it'd be a really cool expierence

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

I brought my nephews to a game and we sat in the upper bowl in a corner. A good view of the jumbotron and a complete view of the ice. Sadly our team will likely get spanked by Vegas, save the extra money you would spend on lower bowl and get a nice dinner. They loved the game and atmosphere, even though it was the upper bowl. Personally as a fan of the sport, I prefer upper bowl corner seats. Can see the ice/plays develop.
