TV doesn't do the game justice. The size, speed, and physicality are all magnified 100x seeing it in person. On TV you'd thing the rink is huge, but get there in person and you realize just how fast things are moving, the lack of room and coordination those guys posses. If you can get there early do so.

Probably about an hour before game time, they have an extended warm-up and you'll see them do crazy stuff with the puck. The pregame skate before the puck drop is just to loosen up. You want to see the real warmup, get there early and move down close (they shouldn't have an issue with that). They will do all their drills, 3 on 2, dump and chase etc. and its all at full speed.

Get there early and enjoy. You will be blown away if you have never seen a game live. Blows away all other sports once you see it live.
