Inspired by Tom Duff’s list of MLB ball parks, and having nothing better to do while waiting for renders today, I compiled a list of satellite images of hockey stadiums - courtesy of Google Maps. I’ve been inside one of these (Vancouver, of course!), hang around the outside of another on a regular basis (L.A. - it’s right next to SIGGRAPH), and that’s about it really. I think Leon’s been to eight or so nine, although his web site no longer admits it. Boy do these stadiums have silly names.
