And if you are wondering how TD Garden and the Bruins stacked up in his lineup

“It was an ‘8’ fan experience, ‘9’ goal horn, ‘9’ venue, with the recent renovations at TD Garden, which were incredible,” he noted.

Hopkins hopes his videos encourage teams to focus more on not only the fan experience, but making the fans feel like part of the team.

“No matter how good a team is, you still need to fill those seats – you still need to make those fans feel appreciated, as if they are one of the team,” he explained.

The three venues he says all earned 9’s across the board were: the Seattle Kraken’s Climate Pledge Arena, the Chicago Blackhawks’s United Center, and UBS Arena, home of the New York Islanders.
