| What's the Arena Like? |
I have never been to the Centre Henry-Leonard. If you have anything to contribute, send it on to  .

| Future
Developments |
There are currently no plans to renovate or replace the Resch Center.

| What Is It Like For Away Fans? |
For opposing fans, the TEC is pretty laid back and calm. Sioux City has had a rep for having bad fans, though I have yet to witness any (drunk and fair weather fans happen everywhere.) The TEC averages under 3,000 per game, so it tends to have an empty feeling. The arena is not intimidating at all, as it's hard for the fans to keep chants going. Sometimes during starting lineups, you can get a few different "Let's go Muskies!" chants through the crowd.
Intimidation Factor: LOW
|
How To Get There |
From Rte. 138 Eastbound: When 138 turns north at boul. Lasalle, continue straight through on Lasalle instead of turning left. Make a right on rue Père-Arnaud. Make a left on Michel-Hémon. The arena will be on your left.

| Local
Rivals |
Baie-Comeau is isolated a long way from the rest of the league, but the team has made up for it by being famously pugilistic. The team's two most "local" teams are Rimouski and Chicoutimi, and another surprising rival is Lewiston, with which the team has had many brawls over the years.
