OK, so I asked the sales office.

Apparently — and I know how silly this sounds but this is what I was told — the “limited view” tags are coming from the fact that the scoreboard blocks lines of sight of the crowd on the other side of the arena. Which was the case before as well, I know. But apparently the NHL had folks come out and clear all views of the ice as being unobstructed by the scoreboard.
I'm not saying they're lying....

But lets just say I don't fully believe this

It definitely has a "think of something, quick!" vibe to it. But this isn't exactly something they can cover up, so I have to assume that they are telling the very weird, awkward truth.
We'll know in 5 days.

I was just in the arena picking up my bags. I should have asked if I could go up and take a look. Put it this way, this is also the same league that said the Barclay's Center was acceptable for hockey
