Loudest building/ best arena atmosphere in the playoffs?

[johnnybbadd]

Straight forward question. Which teams will have the loudest building or best home team atmosphere for this years playoffs. There are the usual suspects like Nashville, Winnipeg and Vegas but I can see them being challenged this year by teams like Carolina, NYI and Dallas. I allowed up to 4 choices on the poll.

For the first round it will be NYI imo. If they get to the second round the games will be at Barclays so it won’t be as loud

Nashville's fans are pretty batshit crazy when their team is winning.

 

[A4T1L6]

Nashville is a good answer

 

[Rob Brown]

Nashville, Winnipeg and Vegas come to mind. Boston is usually rockin', too.

 

[82Ninety42011]

Nashville and Winnipeg. Smashville was a cool idea last year with the cars.

 

[Prince Pasta]

dont vote with your heart, itll be the island (for a a couple games or so before they're eliminated)

 

[rocketdan9]

It is all loud at this time of the season

but if I had to choose one

it is Bell centre in Montreal

they are crazy

 

[Kevin27NYI]

Isles #1

 

[Jordan Belfort]

Went to leafs Boston last year. Nothing beats the ACC with a couple of beers and friends. Place is electric

 

[Jets4Life]

Winnipeg.

 

[Red Dread]

Voted Winnipeg, Isles, Vegas, Washington. Somewhat of a homer pick for last one, probably Nashville.

 

[Jee]

The answer is not Toronto

 

[Crazydounut]

Carolina. With them being back in after a 10 season absence and playing an old southeast division rival who just won the cup. It'll be loud as hell. Not to mention back in 06 and 09 it was probably the loudest arena in the playoffs

I was at Game 6 of the ECF in Washington and it was absolutely insane. Most electric event I have been too, sports or otherwise. With that being said, I think Nashville or Winnipeg are probably more consistent with their rowdiness.

 

[robertmac43]

The ACC actually has a wild pop after goals. The noise levels are not consistently loud but man the pop is insane

 

[La Masse]

Definately not Toronto. I would love if our building could be intimadating to other teams. I would vote for Winnipeg or Nashville

 

[M88K]

The loudest will be the smallest building in the NHL

 

[Namikaze Minato]

The red C and (outside) the SBA

 

[68 Z-28]

San Jose used to be. Not so much anymore with the futility that's gone on. That exuberance is gone, that was around in the early/mid 00's

 

[53or8]

Calgary is pretty intense in the playoffs

 

[WSS11]

Used to be the shark tank, not so much anymore. Nassau Coliseum is my vote. I think they should play all games there personally.

 

[Zhamnov5GoalGame]

Winnipeg's fans do go bat sh&t crazy and the acoustics of the building add to that.
The street party mixed in is pretty nuts.

I will warn however that the Jets banana peel slip into the post season likely causes some nervous stretches in the series. If the Jets stumble like they have recently the crowd will be quited much easier then it would have been at any time in the past. Expectations have widdled away a bit of the "just pumped to be here" sentiments.

I've had seasons tickets since the Jets returned and the 3 goal come back in Game 3 last year vs the Preds was the loudest thing I had ever been in. Especially the 3rd straight goal as we hadn't quite calmed down from the 2nd goal.

I've only been in Toronto and Montreal for other NHL games.
Toronto was oddly quiet on average but did get very loud for the goals.
Montreal was a pre-season game so no comment other than it was still a good atmosphere.

 

[Got One Cup]

Winnipeg And Nashville are the correct answers. Crazy how nuts those fans can get. This is where living in a big baseball town sucks for me.

 

[DesmonicShark]

agree. it used to be impossible to get playoffs tickets for Sharks ... not anymore. reverse sweep did us in

San Jose used to be. Not so much anymore with the futility that's gone on. That exuberance is gone, that was around in the early/mid 00's
