Loudest Arena? Quietest Arena?

[WhiskeyYerTheDevils]

Last night at PNC arena, after the Noesen goal, I believe, the noise was measured at over 112 dbs.

Can confirm, they had it up on the jumbotron. My ears were ringing for like 5 mins after that.

Rogers Place in Edmonton will be bonkers inside and outside the building as per usual

I assume the suits in Toronto will be the quietest

Last year during game 6, McDavid tied the game at 1-1 two minutes or so in.

I could not hear the obnoxiously loud goal horn over the crowd lol

Never forget when Canes fans stood for an entire game 7.



I was at the game. They literally never sat down. That should give you an idea of type of crazy fans they have down here. Add alcohol and great acoustics, and it's just an insane atmosphere.

Not sure if it’s just the mic setup but Tampa is surprisingly quiet for a team with so much success.

Best: Canes, Boston, Montreal, Rangers

MSG playoff game is on my bucket list, the atmosphere looks like a 10/10.

In the regular season, Tampa is pretty quiet. Can't speak for the playoffs.

This is like the stupid arms race the NFL had with "loudest stadium". Measuring peak sound pressure levels. Until teams started just piping in fake noise to make it "louder".


The whole question should be far more about the responsiveness and energy of the building, not just a screaming competition of who can hit the measure highest like an audio version of one of these sort of things:
