if you do not know hockey rules and some strategies,
it is pretty boring watching the game. I guess it is same for any sports.
So do not waste your money unless you can go with someone who can give you some guidance while watching.
While watching hockey, better not follow the puck, but rather follow the player handling or ready to receive the puck.
8-10 Years ago, I got some free tickets and watched several games but feel very boring since at the time I do not know rules. In the last couple years, I became more involved in hockey with my kids and became knowledgable then the game is so interesting that I can safely say that it is more fun to watch than soccer or NBA.
