The modern Ottawa Senators joined the NHL as an expansion franchise in 1992, reviving a name that traces back to the original Senators who won 11 Stanley Cups between 1903 and 1927. The modern club has reached the Stanley Cup Final once, in 2007, led by Daniel Alfredsson, Jason Spezza and Dany Heatley. Home games are played at Canadian Tire Centre, an 18,000-seat arena in Kanata that opened in 1996. The Battle of Ontario against the Toronto Maple Leafs remains the defining rivalry, with playoff meetings in the early 2000s producing some of the most intense hockey of that era. Sens fans are fiercely loyal in a market that also loves the CFL’s Redblacks and the city’s junior hockey tradition. The red, black and gold centurion logo, the “Sens Mile” on Elgin Street during playoff runs, and the family-friendly atmosphere at Canadian Tire Centre all help define the team’s identity in Canada’s capital.
The cheapest Senators tickets typically appear on weeknight non-rivalry games — Mondays and Tuesdays against non-conference opponents move at the steepest discount. Upper-bowl and end-zone seats are 40-70% cheaper than centerline lower-bowl, with comparable views of the action. Check the AllSports listing close to game day too — prices can drop in the final 48 hours when more seats release.
Avoid the markup trap: compare AllSports listings by section, opponent, and game date before you buy. Mid-bowl 200-level seats are the sweet spot for budget-conscious fans — strong sightlines, half the price of premium club seats.
The NHL regular season runs October through April, with playoffs through June. Each NHL club plays 82 regular-season games, split between home dates at Canadian Tire Centre and road dates across the league. The Ottawa Senators schedule typically releases in July, with onsales rolling out city-by-city in the weeks that follow. Playoff and postseason dates are added round-by-round as the bracket clarifies — check this page first when those dates drop, listings refresh every six hours.
The hottest Senators dates on the NHL calendar are divisional grudge matches and Original Six visitors. Rivalry-game inventory at Canadian Tire Centre routinely clears 60-90 days before the first whistle, with the steepest price jumps on the lower bowl. If a rivalry date is on your wishlist, lock in tickets as soon as the schedule is released — waiting until game week often costs 2-3x the early-onsale price.
