I wonder who the lucky person is who gets to rip all that protective film off the glass?

I'm pretty sure they started that last year.

Looks so much nicer without the ads on the boards and non-essential paint on the ice.

About 2,500 seats have been replaced and a new ice plant was installed. Ice is back on the arena surface and the glass along the boards has been erected, albeit still swathed in packing paper.

I talked with a few other electricians I know that were working at the saddledome these last few months and supposedly all of the equipment has been installed/refurbished. There is still some minor finishing to happen and the ice plant still needs to be commissioned but the work is complete, that was one hell of a task to undertake and I would like to say thank you to the hard work and long hours that took them to complete the job.

It's a shame the a/v room had to lose all that 80's vintage equipment.

As long as they fixed the press box elevator, I'll be happy.

Also, "It's All About Commitment" replaces "Every Game Matters" as the @NHLFlames new tagline in 2013/14.
They used that tagline during the 2011/2012 season I believe. Hopefully this season they play like every game matters.

This picture reminds me of when they superimpose people onto renderings of future buildings.

I'm at the Dome for the Eagles concert, and there is no noticeable difference inside the public parts of the building.

If you didn't know something happened, you wouldn't know anything happened.

Perfect, it's good to know they were able to save the crappiness of the dome. It's good to have our old crap rink back and ready to rock for another season....
