The privileged hockey fan tends to forget that it's a luxury to attend games and sit in decent seats. If the Sens are looking for increased demand in a struggling market you absolutely want to appeal to the fans that otherwise may not be able to afford to attend games with a selection of 'cheaper' seats.

Well, it's a simplification, but one way to increase demand is to decrease supply. Which seats would you remove to decrease supply?
