Expo Hall in Tampa (11,000?), Ottawa Civic Centre (10,000) and the Cow Palace in San Jose (11,000) as well. Nothing the last 30 years has fallen below Nassau Coliseum's 13,000ish though.
But if Friedman's right and NHL capacity is closer to 3,200, that'll be the lowest the league has ever had in its 100+ year history. If it's 5,000, the only regular rinks that were lower were the Hamilton Tigers 1920-25 and Philadelphia Quakers 1930-31 at 4,000 each.
