Default [LOL] Coyotes release their STH seating chart for their 5000 person arena

I mean I've seen 2 games in Glendale in prime seats at the Gila River Arena for $15 per seat for the flames and $45 for the leafs. What glue stick did they snort when they came up with this for pricing?

I just wonder how many STHs they have coming over from Gila River.

I figured they would have to start paying fans to go see them but how are they going to make any kind of profit paying every person that much?!?!?!?!? Wait what?

As cool as it would be to watch a game there it is simply embarrassing for the entire league to have a team in a stadium that small.

Sorry, but it’s time to admit the Arizona experiment hasn’t worked and won’t work any time soon. Move the team to Houston and re-visit Arizona for expansion or relocation in 10 years.

I think that's exactly what will happen if the Tempe plan doesn't go through. I've heard some good things, some bad about what city council might decide there.

What a joke. They should have relocated here in Victoria. Better areana and they may have actually sold tickets at those prices

I can't see how this doesn't fail catastrophically. It's going to be an embarrassment.

When was the last time a professional sports team in North America suspended operations mid-season?

I think the NHL could prosper in Austin actually.

Well, at least someone in the Coyotes organization is still feeling optimistic.

You all laugh but that will probably be a fun arena to watch a game in. Some of the best concerts I've seen have been in small venues. At least it won't be 3/4 empty.

Agreed there for concerts. The best shows I've seen are <400 people, but does that work for hockey where 18k+ is common for attendance? And even if it makes the coyotes more profitable, they will certainly be a money pit towards league revenue

No kidding. Sitting in the corners, those are the best seats in the house. And lower bowl, too.

The attack once side should be more money, that is where most of the play will be.

Well thank you.

But while I like to think I can handle quite a bit, I'm not so sure I can take on the pressure of an entire NHL franchise.

Appreciate the faith tho
