Very good news for the Senators, now go out and make the playoffs and bring joy to the great city of Ottawa.

So Ottawa is finally getting an arena in Ottawa? This seems like good news.

Finally! A shame that a perfectly good, still relatively young arena (albeit in a horrible location) is going to be, I'm assuming, demolished prematurely, though.

Nonetheless, congrats Sens fans. I hope this new arena will also help build the fans base.

The new arena will be 15 minutes away from my house. I'm loving this announcement

Good for them, that's been one hell of a mess for so long.

Hopefully Ottawa has learned from Calgary's disastrous deal with the Flames and will be demanding that this be a privately funded project.

Much easier with adults in the room

Coming from the valley this sucks as it was so much easier to see games where it is currently

For anyone who actually lives in Ottawa, first off, sorry and Secondly you probably got home after I did, despite living 20 minutes away while I live 45 minutes away.

With public transportation to get there now it might not be too bad all around for people.

Ehhh, 8th oldest building in the league and will be 30+ years old without any “major” renovations.

I’ve hear the arena might be able to be retrofitted into an indoor amusement park.

good, their market has been massively handicapped by having an arena soo far away.
