Shame it's a few years out, because that 12,000 seat set up in the All Canada ring would be perfect. Even if they kept the same ratio of 1/3 "premium" and 2/3 everything else, that means 8000 affordable seats ($60 or less), which is plenty good for the market.

For next year, this is pretty much what I think they should do:



Basically, take the top 10 rows of each middle section and drop it to the lower price point. So the top of 103/107 goes to $40, 104/106 to $63 and 105 to $90. End result is that you trade about 240 $100 seats and 240 $90 seats for 480 $40 seats. Obviously reduces the maximum potential revenue, but honestly, they are never going to sell 1200 seats at $90 and 630 seats at $100. So get them down to the price points that the market has decided is good value, and for games like this weekend past and the upcoming one against Vancouver, get more casual fans into the building.
