Diet Coke all the way. Never been a big Pepsi fan. Though I do love Diet Dr. Pepper
Dr. Pepper is not actually a Pepsi product, it is a unit of Cadbury-Schweppes. In some parts of the US, the local Pepsi distributor handles Dr. Pepper, in others, the local Coke distributor does, in others other companies distribute it. In Canada, Pepsi is the distributor for Dr. Pepper. Several fast food chains that serve Coke products also have Dr. Pepper and Diet Dr. Pepper as well (Chik-Fil-A and Sonic are two I know of).
As for Pepsi products being sold in all of the NHL arenas, that's not going to happen. With many NHL arenas being shared with NBA teams, which has a deal with Coca-Cola, you're not going to see arenas offering Coke products at NBA games and Pepsi products at an NHL game. If Philips Arena were to sell Pepsi products, the place would likely be burned down. That would be like Busch Stadium selling Miller Brewing products. With the exception of the fast food chains that have contracts to serve Pepsi, you're hard pressed to find Pepsi in most restaurants in Atlanta. At the larger chains of gas stations, you'll find both companies' fountain products.
