Sell Your TicketsThe Ottawa Senators entered the 2026-27 National Hockey League season reshaping their identity after trading captain Brady Tkachuk to the Florida Panthers in the offseason. Rather than tearing down a roster that reached the Stanley Cup Playoffs in consecutive springs, general manager Steve Staios kept the club in contention across the Atlantic Division by leaning on his signed core and defensive structure.
Thomas Chabot took over the Senators captaincy ahead of the season opener, putting the franchise's longest-tenured defenseman at the front of the room. The offense runs through Tim Stützle, the 2020 third-overall pick who anchors the top line on an eight-year contract. On the back end, Jake Sanderson logs heavy minutes under an eight-year deal that keeps him in Ottawa through 2032, while Linus Ullmark stabilizes the crease on a four-year extension. Behind the bench, head coach Travis Green sets the standard after guiding the Sens out of a seven-year playoff drought upon his arrival.
The Senators are still chasing their first modern Stanley Cup after falling short in the 2007 Final, a history reflected in the rafters where Daniel Alfredsson's number 11 hangs above the ice. Across 41 regular-season home dates at Canadian Tire Centre, the hardest tickets to secure are divisional matchups against the Panthers, the Battle of Ontario dates with the Toronto Maple Leafs, and visits from the Montreal Canadiens. Weeknight visits from Western Conference clubs offer the lowest get-in prices in the upper bowl, while the lower bowl puts buyers right on top of the speed Stützle and Sanderson bring every night.
The Ottawa Senators locked in their coaching staff for the long haul by signing head coach Travis Green to a contract extension through the 2030-31 season. General manager Steve Staios also extended assistants Nolan Baumgartner, Ben Sexton, and Mike Yeo alongside goaltending coach Justin Peters, rewarding the staff that brought consecutive postseason berths to Canadian Tire Centre.
Ottawa's roster depth faces an early test in the 2026-27 campaign after offseason trade acquisition William Eklund required surgery to repair torn ankle tendons, sidelining the former San Jose Sharks winger for an extended period. With Eklund out of the lineup after arriving in exchange for a first-round draft pick, the Sens have leaned on offseason additions Samuel Ersson and Jonas Johansson to share the crease workload alongside starter Linus Ullmark.
Center-ice sections in the 100 and 200 levels offer the clearest sightlines for an Ottawa Senators game at Canadian Tire Centre. Club Bell and the 100-level Club Seats provide padded seating and in-seat beverage service right on the glass and along the penalty boxes. Fans who want to see plays develop across all three zones prefer the first five rows of the 200 level or the Molson Fan Deck, an updated upper-bowl social space at one end of the rink.
OC Transpo operates dedicated 400-series express buses directly to Canadian Tire Centre for every home date on the Ottawa Senators schedule. Route 404 departs from Tunney's Pasture Station, Route 405 runs from Trim and Place d'Orléans in the east end, and Route 406 picks up riders across Barrhaven. Regular transit fares apply, and return buses stage outside the arena to depart roughly 15 minutes after the final horn.
Four retired jersey numbers hang from the rafters at Canadian Tire Centre to honor Ottawa Senators franchise icons. The club retired number 8 for original-era winger Frank Finnigan at the modern franchise's inaugural home opener in 1992. Longtime captain and Hall of Famer Daniel Alfredsson had his number 11 raised in 2016, followed by defenseman Chris Phillips' number 4 in 2020 and winger Chris Neil's number 25 in 2023.
Prices for Ottawa Senators tickets fluctuate based on the opponent, the day of the week, and seat location between the lower and upper bowls. Saturday night matchups and divisional games against the Toronto Maple Leafs, Montreal Canadiens, and Florida Panthers command the highest prices across the 41-game home slate. Buyers looking for the lowest get-in cost should target 300-level seats for midweek games against Western Conference opponents.
Holders of NHL tickets at Canadian Tire Centre must follow a strict bag policy that limits personal items to small clutches or wallets measuring no larger than 4 inches by 6 inches by 1.5 inches. Backpacks and hard-sided bags are prohibited inside the arena, though medical bags and diaper bags are permitted after security screening. All gates and concessions operate as a cashless environment accepting only debit and credit cards.
Arena doors at Canadian Tire Centre open 90 minutes before puck drop for every Ottawa Senators game, while the Gate 1 box office opens two hours prior. The venue sits off Highway 417 at Palladium Drive in Kanata and is surrounded by cashless surface parking lots that hold over 6,500 vehicles. Drivers can pre-purchase parking passes before arriving or pay by card at the lot entrances on game night.
The best time to buy Ottawa Senators tickets depends on the matchup on the Ottawa Senators schedule. Rivalry dates against Toronto and Montreal, along with holiday games and visits from the Florida Panthers, often sell out early and should be purchased weeks in advance. For standard weeknight games in the 17,010-seat arena, waiting until the days leading up to puck drop typically yields softer demand in the 300 level.
