It appears they lose about 2,400 lower bowl seats in the conversion from the basketball to hockey configurations. If they sold the upper deck obstructed view seats, they could potentially fit 16,000 in the building.
They could put some seating at ice level in the corners (similar to what the Isles did at Barclays) to add a few hundred seats.
Bettman said there's a plan to get 17,000 unobstructed seats into the building, but I don't know how they can pull that off.

If they can't get proper seating in the corners I hope they pull an IIHF and just stick some cars in the vacant space.
