    15 min from my house.   doesn't happen very often! 
    If you aren't going to the Toronto show, Oilers - Sens game on the wednesday.   Catch the Connor McDavid show.

    I'll be there. Staying at my house because I live in Ottawa.  Looking forward to it. Chose reserved seating since it can still be cold in March and I hate figuring out what I should do with my jacket in general admission. Last time they came to Ottawa I was on the side Row c. The time before that they were still doing floor seats and the front row lottery and I got front row.

    Damn, would’ve liked to go to that game. Haven’t been able to see him since he was here in Erie. Maybe a PJ/Oilers vacation in Edmonton this fall? One can dream, right?

    You son of a bitch, I’m in!

    First time seeing anything in Canada east of BC.  We’re coming from Michigan and hitting Toronto and Ottawa.  Anyone staying out near the venue? Couldn’t decide if downtown was worth it or not.

    If you're spending some time in OTT then downtown is the way to go. 
    If you're just in and out for the show the I would say to stay out by the arena.

    Im doing Quebec show solo.  I’m driving from Ottawa to Quebec on Saturday after Ottawa show.  If anyone needed a ride let me know.  On the Saturday though I’m staying in Trois-Rivières a couple hours outside of Quebec for the night in a private room at The HI there and then into Quebec on The Sunday where I’m staying at The Hotel Le Voyageur.  In Ottawa I’m staying close to the arena at The Brooktrout residence in Kanata @ 2 Maricona Way.
