Original Six tradition meets modern rivalry when the Ottawa Senators face the Toronto Maple Leafs in NHL preseason action at Canadian Tire Centre on Sept. 21, 2025. Puck drops at 3 p.m., giving fans an early look at rookies, line-combo experiments and off-season acquisitions before the regular-season grind.
Tickets are on sale now at the arena box office and via ScoreBig, where hockey die-hards can choose lower-bowl glass, centre-ice views or budget-friendly upper-deck seats—always with zero hidden service fees.
The matchup lets Ontario rivals fine-tune special teams while stoking bragging rights that stretch back to the 1910s. Sens captain Brady Tkachuk will battle Auston Matthews and Toronto’s high-octane offense, while coach D. J. Smith gauges new defensive pairings. Expect spirited play despite the “preseason” label; last fall’s exhibition tilt featured 74 combined shots and a shootout finish.
Canadian Tire Centre’s easy highway access and ample parking make a Sunday matinee perfect for families. Arrive early to tour the concourse memorabilia or grab BeaverTails before seats fill.
