Going to Game 3 - advice needed.

Because I've got the best wife ever, I'm going ot be at game 3
(birthday present - yay me!)

I'll be taking the train from Toronto to Ottawa and arrive at about
2pm. If any newsgroup regulars have any advice on the following,, I'd
love to hear it.

1. Cheap hotel near the train station?
2. Things to do in Ottawa before the game? any good place to have a
decent meal / beer before the puck drops?
3. How early should I get out to the arena? I know the road out there
will be busy (caught a pre-season game last season).
3.a. Anything to do around the arena that could kill some time?
4. Anyplace that is good for post-game celebrations / drowning of
sorrows?
5. Anything else you want to add that I may have missed?

Thanks for the advice in advance. I'll be in sec. 219 in a black
Heatley jersey. See ya there!
