The new regime should take a step back and re-think the whole pay a large fee for and "all you can eat" concept of the club seats.
Perceptually it's a problem with empty seats seen on tv.
Are 3 sections on both sides a few too many?
How do you get more people to sit in the seats during game action rather than stand by the ledges or at the bar/tables?
Or would they rather people sit at the bar during the games and rack up charges on their credit cards?
The seats are marketed towards corporations in an economy where many businesses are slashing their expenses and the first to go are the "slush" funds.
Does it really pay off financially?
The new regime are smart guys, billionaires who are proven winners in their trade.
I am sure they are reviewing all ticket pricing within the building but espcially the ones with best potential to make lucrative profits, the premium seats (clubs, suites, Acela Ledge and Goal Bar.
They may find out that what's best for them finacially may not allign with what us fans want for our ideal game day atmosphere.
A packed sea of red game in and game out.
To be honest, the lounges are the best seats in the house. Amazing views, food until you get diabetes, bar with almost no line, empty clean bathrooms nearby. I stay up there for half the game and I don't blame anyone that does either. Then when I do go down to the seats I sit closer by the glass instead of in my actual seats. It's win/win really.
Who cares how it looks on TV, all I hear from rival teams is how awesome our lounges are and how jealous they are. Only way to really solve empty seats would be install little table trays and have waiters bring you food to your seats.
Edit: if the Devils offered standing room only season tickets, where I could just stand by the ledge the whole game or hang out in the lounge I would be all over it, if it were for a fair price.
