Message: [QUOTE="DblCrossbar, post: 4794665, member: 12251"] Blame JCJ architects for the arena portion of the TFIF. Maybe the players’ sections are fine and even appealing, but an experienced hockey arena designer would have held the line and been more of a consultant and pushed to say no on many of the “features” ( bugs) - especially with such a tiny footprint. Instead all of the big arena amenities were squeezed I. When a contiguous bowl should have been the answer. In addition to the Martire Family Arena at SHU (ok they also messed up with the band taking up prime seats behind the goal) see also Schneider Arena in Providence for a comparison of a venue about the same size and much more intimate and energetic because the simplest and most effective arena shape that brings fans in as a cohesive ”one” for hockey is established and unbroken.
