I know it's probably not on the priority list, but it would be great if they changed the "railing" in front of the wheelchair seats to Plexiglas as it does obstruct the view somewhat. At least on the upper deck. They don't appear to be working on that, sorry. Not my trade, so I don't know if that's in the works. They actually have to remove a chunk of the catwalk because it obscures part of the new press box addition. If anyone went for seats the past few days you'd have seen them on the lift above sec 300, 301 where the catwalk meets the press box. If you weren't admiring the view instead. Just to add to the jersey rumor (and keep this semi-on topic), people who have seen them (or perhaps concept art) have expressed that they're gorgeous. But opinions being like nipples and all..... Thanks for the updates! Can't wait for the new jerseys!

This isn't about what the jersey looks like, but relevant to the mystery. I'm doing work at the MTS Center, as part of the ongoing renovations, the latest rumor I heard is that the guys playing in the rookie only tournament in September will be wearing practice jerseys. The amount of work that needs to be done in that building is staggering. I know it's probably not on the priority list, but it would be great if they changed the "railing" in front of the wheelchair seats to Plexiglas as it does obstruct the view somewhat. At least on the upper deck. Yes it would. Something that needs to be done I hope at some point. I'm glad my selections were rows 10 and 11 above them!

Thanks for the info. Do you know when they will be removing the Moose stuff that is still present? For example, the large Moose rugs at the entrances, the Moose off the rack store signage, etc.

As far as the plexi-glass goes, my buddies have seats in Row 1 of the upper deck, and a quarter of their view is obstructed by the railing and metal mesh. The ticket rep said he doesn't know, and can't give any guarantees but that he assumes they will eventually replace it with plexi-glass, because they did in the 100 and 200 level back in 2004. He said he assumes it's on the list of things to be done, just probably no where near the top.

Briefly talked to the guys unpacking the merchandise today, these guys expect they will have the PRO jerseys for sale not too long after the reveal. The replicas later on, likely the same time as everyone else has been told. So if you got a few (several?) hundred dollars you may be able to get a jersey earlier than you think. They haven't seen it either. They've been unpacking tons of stuff in a fairly busy hallway, so if you were a little disappointed in what the offerings for merch was early on, they have more styles out now.
