Liam Theo Hockey

I am a huge hockey fan, so much so, that I’ve created a hockey merchandising company called Substantial Hockey. #HockeyIsEverything and Substantial Hockey is designed to help hockey enthusiasts showcase their passion everyday.

This page of my website will be a place to tell my personal stories related to hockey. I will share my favorite teams, what arenas/venues I’ve been to for what teams, in what league. I’ll showcase some of my hockey photography, artworks, and designs.

What Hockey Arenas/Rinks Have I Been To?

With hockey being such a huge part of my life, I’ve made it a goal of mine to go to as many NHL games as I can. If any opportunity arises, I do my very best to go. I recall driving two and a half hours from Pittsburgh to our campground just outside of Cleveland, only to drop off our bags and the dogs to then drive another two and a half to Buffalo for a Sabres preseason game. Many adventures prior to full-time RV living were planned around the possibility of going to a game or two. So, here are the lists of arenas and rinks that I have been to, to watch a game.
