Delta Center Everything Thread

[MIGs Dog]

It sounds like the Delta Center is similar to the Footprint Center in Phoenix, with thousands of obstructed-view seats. But there's a plan to increase the unobstructed seating from 12k to 17k over the next two years.

In other news, Utah fans are excited, with 11,000 season ticket deposits received as of 18 April.

Gary Bettman says there are plans to increase capacity at Delta Center in Utah to 17,000

NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman told NHL Network's Adnan Virk on Thursday that the team is working on increasing the number of unobstructed seats at Delta Center to 17,000 from 12,000 within two seasons.

The biggest issue right now is sightlines. There are a ton of sections that have limited visibility to the point you have to watch the monitors to see the action. So I'm hoping that is addressed in the current building. Pretty much any of the corners and behind the nets (upper bowl).

History repeats itself sometimes. Except the Coyotes will have real ownership this time, and a new facility on the horizon. Funny how that works.

What I read is that they have a plan to correct the issue but that it will take two off seasons? Is this summer off season one? Don't know.

Player intros? Does that mean some players will go out there?

I've heard some media talk about the Coyotes players having their "end of the year" party in Vegas this weekend and some of them will be in Utah next week.

The Utah team will have one owner in same building and all the revenue that goes with that, something the Coyotes did not have.

Also, I feel like Burke was real ownership.
